AOE cash farming spot?

So I have a 70 prot pally, and in prot spec it's a lot easier to grind than quest, if I can go AOE grinding. The question is, is there anything out there I can aoe grind as a prot pally that drops anything worth selling?
For those who aren't familiar with aoe grinding, the mobs ideally should meet the following criteria:
Melee attackers only. No casters or ranged attackers if I can help it.
Mobs close enough together that I can pull six or more at a time.
The faster the mobs' attack speed, the better--I can kill dual-wielding mobs faster than 2-hander wielding ones.
Ideally, mobs that don't run at low health.
I'm thinking earth elementals or fungal giants might be a good way to go about this, to sell Primal Earth or Primal Life? Any suggestions?

Since you're in the same realm as me, albeit opposite factions, i can estimate the realm's economy:
if you're an enchanter, go SM cath, the shards sell at about 9G a piece and there are random drops that sell for ~100G if you get lucky.
I can also sell the SM cath runs for ~3G/person and do this about 5 times in one hour, about the same as the lockout limit
the mobs beside BT is good to farm, but the problem with them is that the drops are too random to be a solid source of income
arcane tome = ~12G
the signets = ~couple silver
but that's just my opinion

Also, herbs and minerals sell for quite a bit
might be more profitable to farm those instead

Could we please stop calling it AoE? ^.^
The fungal giants at quagg ridge are easy to grind, they spawn fast and give good loot if you're herbalist. Their DoT ticks for 1 damage with BoSan active (at more than 1 charge) and they hit weakly.

what would you call it then?

I farmed these for Primal life, it's fun grinding down 20-30 of these at a time, you can avoid the mushrooms that give the DoT too

I had done this in 3 different setups
alone
with a healer
with a mage
alone is definitely the hardest,
mount up and gather 4-5, get off the mount and kite them with consecration rank 1 until you have a satisfactory amount, AoE them down while using SoW/JoW
when with a healer or a mage, I let them gather the mobs and bring them to me onto a platter of max rank consecration
it worked well since the healer was the one I was collecting the primal life for (sister) and mage was happy with herbing the corpse
if you're doing this alone, use trash tanking gear if you have it, high block rating and value, low pure avoidance
if you do this with a healer, high spell damage gear works fine
if you do this with a mage you could also just put healing gear on and heal the mage when needed, since the mage can solo them by themselves
yes they are worthwhile to farm even if you're not a herbalist
