Valley of the Four Winds

In Valley of the Four Winds, there's a place called Paoquan Hollow, which is a place with high spawn rates of Ghost Iron Nodes and Green Tea Leafs.
As you can see on this image: https://i.imgur.com/9xmSH.jpg I discovered 3 nodes the same moment i came to the place. (There was two more nodes a bit further down the map, but couldn't fit them all on the minimap for the screenshot.) I have been farming at this spot for a few weekdays to see if the spawn rate had changed, and it still hasn't. I were farming from 12:25am the first day i found the spot, until 1:15am and mined just above 300 Ghost iron ores. I tried it the next day at a earlier time (10:40pm - Can be seen on this picture: https://i.imgur.com/gW6ra.jpg) on the high populated server, and mined 250 ores in roughly an hour.

You can earn more gold at this spot if you are herbalism too. I've found countless amounts of Green Tea Leafs. I would suggest you to use this lovely item; Mist-Piercing Goggles. If you are lucky enough, then you might find the Ancient Pandaren Mining Pick, which will let you get gems from nodes/veins.

I also noticed a few spots in Jade Forest, though spread out on the whole map, unlike Paoquan Hollow, which can be found here: https://i.imgur.com/3N1sS.jpg. There are high spawn rates of Ghost Iron Nodes, even Rich ones at these marked spots. I was so lucky to find 5 nodes at the same time (This was before i got the Mist-Percing Goggles): https://i.imgur.com/dZui0.jpg

Paoquan Hollow earned me after ~1 hour
550 Ghost Iron Ores - 2475g before AH cut on my server.

Bonus tip for Engineers (Recommended if you got mining on some character):
Smelt your ores. They are worth less as ores, and even as bars.
You have two options: Either make them to Ghost Iron Bolts (~48g per piece on my high populated server)
or make the bars into gear sockets. The most selling and most profital gears on your server can be found at WoWuction - WoW Auction House Online Tool
Result: All in all i made the 550 ores to 275 bars which i made to 183 Ghost Iron Bolts. I sold them all over 1½ day and earned roughly 8.7k gold by mining for 2 hours.
