Before you start looking for Hot Rock Ores, make sure you can mine it first. You need at least a Steel Pickaxe, which is a tier 3 Memetic under the Infastructure tree.

Like in the Cold Crystal Ores, you must "stabilize" the temperature around the ore deposit first before mining it. There are currently three ways to do this using different items.
First is the Improved Frost Grenade. Unlock the Explosive Throwables Memetic under the Crafting tree then make them in a Synthesis Bench. Bring a few Activators with you as well in case you take damage from the Frost Vortex.
You can also use a Frozen Northern Pike and hit the Hot Rock Ore with it. Unfortunately, the weapon's blueprint can only be obtained from Margerie in the Red Sands region in Eastern Nalcott (Manibus map) for 10 Northern Pikes.
As of the moment, it's still unknown how to obtain the Frozen Northern Pike's blueprint in Way of Winter. If you already have the blueprint from a previous scenario, feel free to craft it at a Gear Workbench to help cool down hot rock ores!
Lastly, if you already have the Ice Pot Deviant from the Deviation: Ice Pot quest, you can use the Sticky Ice Crystals it produces on the Hot Rock Ores.
After finding a Hot Rock Ore deposit, ready your Steel Pickaxe then cool the deposit with any of the items listed above. Approach the Hot Rock Ore and mine it while it's cold.
One of the best farming locations for Hot Rock Ores is along the road leading to the Fire Throat Fortress in Ember Strand. The large open area beside the road also has other types of ores.
You can also find several Hot Rock Ores grouped together on one spot inside the Fire Throat Fortress itself. Clear the enemies around the area first so you can mine the ores safely.
