Higher than iron ore?

Anyone know where you can mine ores other than iron? Ive only ever found iron ore in dungeons. I know you can buy it from vendors but I enjoy mining what I can myself and it saves cash too

Sorry, no. But do you know where to smelt iron ore, I can't find anywhere where it lets me smelt it.

I have not done much, but I found gold ore in a cave, don't know if that counts as higher than iron ore :)

As for smelting, there is a smelter outside Warmaidens in Whiterun. Its at the back just beyond the forge.

I haven't tried it yet but I think there would be some places that have higher ore.

I also ran into a corundum vein in one of the giant camps. Didn't have a pick with me so I couldn't mine it though. Not sure if it's a useful metal, I haven't gotten into smithing all that much just yet.

iron is the lowest, next is steel, corendum orichalium (something like that) ebon ( found ebon in a random quest cave) and dwarven ingot, made from smelting all kinds of dwemer robot parts (they lay on the floor sometimes too) and theres glass but I havent found it, probably very rare too, + ebon, only got 2 veins

but if your a smith, always carry a few iron ingots with you, I needed them alot in higher level recipes and sharpening weapons...
