Mining 1-450

I maxed my mining pretty quick by buying ore in the auction house, and smelting as I could afford it. When you begin to slow down on the leveling while smelting, just start actually mining the highest nodes you can mine. This will give you one level per node until you accumulate enough ore to smelt again. Sell all your bars, and extra ore on the auction house, then use the gold to purchase the ore you need to smelt yourself higher again. Rinse and repeat till 450.
