The Platinum Map quest can be started in any zone.
You just need to farm Platinum and there is a chance to get [item=161088] item from every Platinum node.I think that the best place to farm Platinum is Stormsong Valley

If you have an item that increases your mining skill enough to bring it to or above 150, you will not be able to start this quest. your base skill needs to be 150 to start it.
Got "The Platinum Map" yesterday, and I'm 175 mining skill, and two stars on Platinum...
That is every comment on this page.

Description
Nestled within the fissures of the deposit, you find a small disc of pure platinum. Dusting it off, you see etchings in its surface and recognize it as a map of Vol'dun. You also notice what appears to be a small cave in the south west that has been circled. Whoever left this apparently has a wealth of knowledge of the metal and wants to be found.
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.
