Thorium Ore Farming in Silithus (Classic - WoTLK)
Silithus is another great zone for farming Thorium Ore. The amount of minds that litter the outer mountains of the zone will just simply blow your mind. If you are the only person in the zone then it would just be beyond impossible for you to run out of Thorium while circling the zone. In addition to Thorium you will get some Mithril as well as an occasional Truesilver deposit too. The biggest question people ask is, why don't you enter the bug hives? Well the answer is simple. Running through them is really just a waste of time since there is more than enough Thorium outside of them. Below is the exact path that I use to farm Silithus (same as the path seen in the video) - Click the image to enlarge it
Best Thorium Ore Farming Path:
The same thing I said for Un'goro also applies to Silithus. If you bump into someone farming this zone either start flying in the opposite direction or switch zones. Flying in the opposite direction as them will split the amount of mines you both get in half but at least you both will still be getting something. Below is a video of me farming Silithus for anyone interested in seeing how much Thorium is there with there own two eyes!
