Unstable Explosives are giant bombs sitting on the ground in Death's Hand Encampment. Nothing is needed to be channeled, just click the bomb once and it is destroyed.

What to do
Description
The Lich King's lackeys have dared to bring weapons of destruction into my domain. I will not stand for this. Go to their outpost to the north and destroy the weapons they would use against the land. We cannot let the Scourge taint another inch of these sacred lands.
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.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Exterminate the Intruders
I am an embodiment of but one aspect of Freya, daughter of the titans. I am the Lifewarden -- I was left here to protect this land against the threat of the Scourge. I never anticipated the Lich King would send willing living servants to do his work.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Lifewarden's Wrath
We were not quick enough, <name>. The cultist scum have arrived at the Glimmering Pillar and are making preparations to destroy it, I can sense them. We don't have much time. Blow upon this horn atop the Glimmering Pillar to channel my power through the crystal.
