Find Minerals is a starting ability of the primary profession Mining which shows nearby mineral veins and deposits as gold veins (Iconsmall-obj350.png) on the minimap.

When you mouse-over the gold dots, it will reveal what type of ore the vein will yield. Note that this skill shows ALL mineral veins, regardless of the Miners ability to actually mine them or not.

Bright gold veins indicate that the vein is on the surface. Dull gold veins indicate that the vein is underground in a cave or dungeon, unless you are also underground, in which case they will show as bright gold.

Prefixed deposits will display as a Hightlight Vein icon on the minimap.

Patch changes

  • Dragonflight Patch 10.2.5 (2024-01-16): Prefixed deposits now display a white highlight on both sides of the icon to differentiate them from their regular counterparts.
  • Dragonflight Patch 10.0.0 (2022-10-25): Mini-map icon changed to a gold vein icon, from a Iconsmall-obj8.png gold blip.
