No Shield there for me today.This is a HEROIC only quest. The item won't spawn in Normal BUT the quest "helper" will still put the zone on your maps.
Anyone else REALY wish it would say in the quest descripition if its Heroic mode, none of the ones ive done so far have.

When you enter the dungeon and go left you will reach the tunnel that leads to Magmolatus. The shield is on the opposite side of the entrance to that tunnel.
Reference to The Lost Vikings (Wikipedia), a very very VERY cool game released by Blizzard in the early 90s for consoles and PC. In it, you control 3 vikings independently: Eric, Baleog, and Olaf, each with different abilities, and have to use their specific skills to solve puzzles and get all three of them to the end of each level.
Not unlike WoW, the game's dialogues are funny and amusing, and the game itself is easy to grasp and hard to master.
Earlier this year, Blizzard released it along with other classic titles as a free download from Battle.net. Here you can find all free, classic downloads from Blizz

Description
Oi, barely made it out of that place! We came through the portal to help, and the next thing you know, we're prisoners in the Bloodmaul Slag Mine. It was brutal! We were shackled for days, and covered in filth. And they took my SHIELD!
Getting there
Inside the dungeon: Bloodmaul Slag Mines
On the northern outskirts of Frostfire Ridge, the Bloodmaul ogres run a brutal mining operation amidst the sweltering heat of active volcanic caverns. Slaves from across Draenor are transported to the mines, never to leave alive.
Bosses in the Adventure Guide, in order: Magmolatus, Slave Watcher Crushto, Roltall, Gug'rokk.
Entrance: Stonefury Cliffs, Frostfire Ridge at 49.7, 24.6.
