Mining
Project Lore Editor
Miners can harvest ore from mining veins and smelt it into bars at a forge. These bars are used by a few different crafting professions, including Blacksmithing, Engineering, and Jewelcrafting. Jewelcrafters also use raw ore for prospecting, which produces gems from 5 pieces of ore. Motes of Earth are also found while mining high level nodes.

Useful to a wide range of classes, Jewelcrafters can make rings, trinkets, necklaces, and gems for sockets from mining products. Prospecting ore from mining can create extra gems to sell to others, as well.
Metal bars are used in many schematics for engineering, as are raw stones found while mining. Combined with mining, a character can have a steady supply of primals, other than life and fire.
Characters looking to create some useful crafted mail armor, plate armor, or melee weapons can pick up Blacksmithing. The primary component of these items will be bars of metal smelted from ore.
Mining and skinning is a classic pair of professions used to make money. Find Minerals can be kept active at all times to track mining nodes while killing and skinning beasts for leather.
Not quite as effective as skinning, since only one tracking skill can be active at once, mining and herbalism can produce a good amount of money. This pair can also supply another character with materials and money for plenty of crafting.

Miners are able to sell both raw ore and smelted bars to other players, not to mention the gems found when mining. Nearly every type of ore and bar will sell, and make sure to check prices for ore vs bars.
Fel Iron and Adamantite are the most desired type of ores for high-end Jewelcrafters, as they can yield rare gems from prospecting. Stones that are mined are also used by a good number of recipes for Engineering and Blacksmithing. Primal Earth, while not as valuable as other Primals, can also be sold for a good amount of money.
A great way to finding mining nodes is to use an addon such as Gatherer or Cartographer, which keeps track of all possible spawn locations for ore.
