The quest for this and the skinning/herbalism drops (which can also be looted from the sludge covered objects mentioned above) are only available if you have those professions.
You need 350 mining to mine the ore, there is also a small chance to get a Netherwing Egg from the node. And by small i mean i was farming for about an hour and found 5... not sure if im just lucky though :P

Description
A miner! <Varkule salutes.> An orc after my own heart! That's how Varkule got his start - minin'! There ain't nothin' better than getting down and dirty in the mines, is there? Now get out there and find those nethercite deposits. Strip 'em for all their worth and bring me back the ore.
