TheWoWDBIf you're having trouble finding the opening to the mine, it is at coordinates 46.1, 29.2
For those without coordinates, there is a trai leading west-northwest from the Greenstone Mason's Quarter (where you had to kill the Puckish Sprites) that takes you to the mine entrance.

Made me think of American frontierswoman, Calamity Jane. Instead of fighting back Indians though, you get to fight back shale spiders named Nibblers and Gorgers.
I had trouble finding this cave, Just go down the path where the orange trees are to the bottom. If you are a miner expect to find a lot of ghost iron ore..

Description
You ever seen a shale spider, {class}? Usually harmless, just creepin' around eatin' rocks, but they got a taste for jade like cubs on candy. The boys call 'em "nibblers." A few days back, we tunneled into a huge nest of these critters. They spilled out into the mines and went crazy, chewed up damn near everything in sight - including some of the boys. You get in there and clear 'em out, and we got plenty of jade to spare. The quarry is directly west of here.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- I Have No Jade And I Must Scream
Our whole jade supply line has fallen apart. The mines are a death trap, morale is historically low, and - as if that weren't bad enough - the mason's quarter has been overrun by wood sprites! Now even the plants are out to ruin me!
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Mann's Man
<For once, the foreman lowers her voice.> Look, this ain't easy... I got another favor to ask. My idiot husband, Hao, is a shift lead down at the quarry. I told him not to go back, that it was too dangerous, but he's as stubborn as a hozen and twice as stupid.
