Black Trillium Ore

Mining [object=209313] and [object=209330] provide either Black Trillium Ore or White Trillium Ore, they are a rare spawn, normally spawn in ghost iron node locations in the same zone. Looking closely at the node you can see a black and white swirl symbol on it.

If you can see the color of the rock under the vein, the ore mined will be the same color. Example: Townlong Steppes has black rock and white rock, if a node is on black rock you get black ore, white rock you get white ore.

Update 03 Aug 2012: Locations are in Jade Forest and Valley of Four Winds Level 90 daily zones, Kun-Lai Summit, Townlong Steppes, Dreaded Wastes, and Vale of Eternal Blossoms. Each area can spawn normal or rich veins.

Note for Vale of Eternal Blossoms, all mining and herb locations are phased out unless the first quests for the Golden Lotus faction are completed, must be level 90 to start the quests.

Interesting and worth noting - If you put both the White and Black trillium ore icons over each other, they make a yin-yang.

Is black rarer than white or something? After planting seeds on my farm for quite a few days now I have two and a half stack of white and just 18 black.
