While the Fellowship travelled through Moria, they spotted different races of orcs: most were the normal small Moria orcs but some were "large and evil: Black Uruks of Mordor". The orc chieftain who stabbed Frodo was described as "Uruk chieftain".

Now it's the question if these orcs always lived in Moria or were only there on a special mission. I would tend to the latter for two reasons: It explains why the chieftain headed directly for Frodo, and the quote specifically says "of Mordor". You forget the bodygaurds of Bolg.
