The miners guide to lots of Gold.
This is a simple one, but just by a little looking and some decent skill you can make lots very quickly.
The secret is that on most any realm, some kind of mining mineral is in REAL high demand.
Look in the AH to see what kind of things go for high price. In my realm the most in demand is Iron. So what do I do? Find a good place to farm it, a favorite is the bottom of Arathi Highlands where the trolls are.
(Thanks for helping me discover that Jame.) Anyway lots of Iron Deposit spawn so the idea would be to get enough to make at least one stack of 20. Next thing we want to do is go to the Auction House and check the prices on it.
Hmmmm...7g Starting Bid and 10g buyout? What is this guy smoking?! (Thats the highest I have seen it go, and seriously that guy was on too much Bloodthistle or even Crack.) Now lets take the current highest price and throw it in at 50s-1g lower...repeat this if it sells until you see if its on demand. If Iron isn't it try things like Mithril, Steel, Etc. I guarantee at some point you will find something on demand, try searching different Bars of Mineral, also note that sometimes they go for higher un-smelted.

Opinions wanted,
I would like to make a larger version of this. Including a guide to different minerals and hiking the skill to get them. If you have something you want me to add either post a comment here or send a private message. At any rate I would very much like opinions of how well this worked for people.
this guide really doesnt
this guide really doesnt seem like a guide. i appreciate the authors efforts but it doesnt really tell us anything. maybe info on mining routes for various ores and skill levels would be more helpful. along with any hot ideas from observations of what is selling better (obviously mileage varies on servers).
