Dissapointment in Outland

Hi,
Warrior lvl 65 with Mining/Skinning here. I get to Outlands, and most of what I mine is Fel Iron Ore. Most of what I skin is Knothide Leather scraps.
Fel Iron Ore sells for much less than Thorium Ore.
Knothide Leather Scraps sells for much less than Rugged leather.
What gives? Why wouldn't they sell for more? Aren't they more difficult to obtain?
Cheers.

Pure supply and demand.
Fel Iron gets tripped over through Outland. Thorium requires specific zones in Azeroth, which are skipped by a good percentage of the server in the rush to 80.
It actually takes MORE Thorium than Fel Iron to level blacksmithing and JC. Thorium ore prospects into more valuable gems.
Not sure on leather, but I'd suspect it is the same.
Rule #1 of gathering professions - higher level materials do not automatically sell for more than lower level materials.
