Mining and Armorsmithing QuestionsFollow

The other day I finally became an armor smith but found that the guy will only teach me 2recipies. So is there another guy that will teach me more or do I have to find/buy my recipies? Also where can I find a nice bit of thorium? And is it possible to have some skills leveled ouver 300 because I heard someone say that you need about 310 skinning to skin some kind of dragon or something?

From what I understand, the trainer will have only a few of the recipes you need. The rest of the plans are either quested or drop off mobs.

Thorium can be found in many zones but none are easy. Here are links to the small and rich thorium mine spots. You get more ore and gems from the rich thorium but those are highly contested so be prepared to fight other ore farmers.
