High Iron Ore is a light copper color ore with darker brown spots. The nodes are usually located near mountains or large boulders. It can be found in any zone by characters with Rank 2 in the Metalworking passive or character level 16 to 24. When mined, a node yields three to four samples of the raw material, High Iron Ore, which can then be refined into Steel Ingots. Ten raw samples usually yield seven to ten ingots. The ingots can be used for crafting pieces of heavy steel armor and weapons at any of the blacksmithing stations. In order for you to create steel gear your Metalworking ability should be rank 2.
