Mining Skill 1: You need to see a mining trainer if you wish to start the Mining profession. If you already have two professions then you are required to forget a primary profession from your character profile... under skills.
REMEMBER THAT SMELTING ORES WHICH YOU HAVE ALREADY GATHERED ALSO INCREASES YOUR MINING SKILL.
Mining Copper: When you first start out with the Mining profession you will only be able to Mine Copper Ores, however you will discover that when mining copper you will also be able to find gemstones, and stones which you can sell to jewelcrafters and can bring a good amount of gold when sold via the Auction House.

You will find the following items while mining Copper in "Elwynn forest".
- Copper Ore
- Rough Stone
- Malachite
- Shadowgem
(this is my recommended mining route - click on image to enlarge)
I have created the above map, for you to follow around Elwynn Forest to find the densest deposits of Copper Ores. (please click on the image above to enlarge). On the area marked with a blue circle you will find a Mine, where you can enter and find more underground mining nodes and the MOBS there will also drop copper ore. The guide starts and ends at Stormwind gate simply for ease of use and its easy to find as its one of the largest land marks in the game.
Remember "Smelting" of the ores you have gathered will also give you additional "Mining" skill points. Once you reach 65 Mining Skill its time to get the training for "Smelt Bronze" and "Smelt Tin" from your friendly "Mining Trainer" then move onto "Tin Ore", "Incendicite Ore", "Lesser Bloodstone Ore" and "Silver Ore".
When you reach 65 Mining Skill Points get training from your "Mining Trainer" for "Smelt Bronze" and "Smelt Tin".
