If you have gotten the mining item from a dungeon or something alike, you need to go down to the surface and mine a normal mining node aswell, in order to be able to take the quest from the item. Otherwise it will tell you that you aren't eligible for the quest.

Description
Your miner's instinct is kicking in. Chunks of the infernal's corpse appear to be usable. Still, there must be a way to extract more ore from the demon's body. Perhaps your mining trainer in Dalaran will know how.
Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Felslate Seam Sample
This ore is remarkably heavy. More disturbingly, it seems to darken and hiss at your touch. Perhaps your mining trainer in Dalaran has some insights.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Felsmiths
Ye have a knack with this felslate, lad. Best ship ye off to someone who knows the stuff better than I. The Illidari have a knack with all things demonic, really, and I've heard about a few miners who've set up shop out near the demons in Suramar. Pay 'em a visit. See what they have to teach ye.
