You must have 25 Mining skill (without gear bonuses) to complete this WQ (to see the nodes and interact with them). If you have 25+ Mining skill only because of gear bonuses, you will be offered this WQ on your map, but you will not see the nodes when you arrive to the area.
If you, like me, came to this WQ before reaching 25 Mining skill and have been mining nearby nodes to hit 25: If you reach skill 25 and find you STILL can't see the WQ nodes, go somewhere else far enough that the text at the top of your screen displays a new zone, and then return to the WQ area. You should find that it "reset" and that you can now complete the WQ.
Hope this helped!
To clarify, the WQ doesn't even activate until 25 skill, and you won't see the nodes at all.
