World-of-warcraft – Do I get Ore if I upgrade the Dig Site in the Garrison and how much

world of warcraft

The Tooltip of the plan for the dig site says:

The Mine was once abandoned, but there are still underground riches
ready to be discovered.

  • Level 1: Allows players to mine Draenic Stone from mineral nodes
    in Draenor. Draenic Stone can be converted to work orders for Draenor
    minerals. 7 Work Orders
  • Level 2: Allows followers with the Mining
    trait to work here, granting a unique bonus (adds mining carts). Also
    opens a new mineshaft, granting access to additional mining nodes. 14
    Work Orders
  • Level 3: A final mineshaft allows access to rich
    mining nodes. In addition, garrison guards will patrol your mine,
    keeping it clear of hostile Goren. 21 Work Orders.

It does not say what I actually get. Do I get resources or ore? If I get Ore, how much per day? What are the exact benefits?

I am Engineer so the Ore would be welcome, but I cannot harvest any ore since I am Jeweler with my second profession on my main character.

Best Answer

You will be able to mine even without the mining profession and you can earn ores, stones, and primal spirits for doing so.

Icy-veins states that:

The ore nodes in your mine can be mined without having Mining as a profession.

Each of them contain either Blackrock Ore or True Iron Ore, a few Draenic Stones, and sometimes a few Primal Spirit. The nodes respawn every day (at the time when the daily quests are reset). The size of your mine increases as you upgrade it, so you have a lot more nodes in a Level 3 mine than you do in a Level 1 mine.

To give you an idea, a Level 1 mine can provide you with 15-20 Blackrock Ore, True Iron Ore, and Draenic Stones a day. A Level 3 mine with a follower can provide you with 150x Blackrock Ore, 150x True Iron Ore, and 50x Draenic Stone.

Blackrock ore and True Iron Ore are actual crafting reagents, and can be used like other mining ores found in WoW. Primal Spirit's are actually a garrison item than can be given to your primal trader in your garrison in exchange for other various crafting reagents.
