You have to kill either "Mineral Elementals" or globs that appear as hostile around the area.

As is typical with many quests so far in the early stages of TWW, there are not enough mobs in the area for the sheer amount of players pursuing this objective. In addition to this, the respawn times are VERY long.

Where to go
