I would harvest the nodes there, but at the same time kill the granite golems and harvest them. So I wasn't just doing the boring "dig dig dig" but getting to kill stuff, gather hoard and coin at the same time AND level my crafting. I did that for about 20 levels. Didn't find a good place to do it for the later tiers though, but for Slate try Slate Crest.
