Mysterious Ore Locations
Finding secrets in Genshin Impact is no less important than completing quests. It is a good way to farm Exp, Mora, Oculus, and other useful items. Sometimes, the intense puzzles in the world can confuse you.
There are a total of 7 Mysterious Ores scattered throughout the northern part of Fontaine. They are needed to obtain Arkhium Stock in Genshin Impact. But before you start collecting this Ore, we recommend you complete story quests such as Treacherous Light of the Depth, Road to the Singularity, and Unfinished Comedy. During them, you will unlock new passages and locations that you will need to find Mysterious Ore:
- Travel to Mont Esus East Waypoint and jump into the water. Swim down the cave until you find Thorny Cyst. To defeat it you will need to use Jellyfish abilities. After defeating the creature, you will receive your first Mysterious Ore.
- Fast travel to Abandoned Production Zone Waypoint. It is the place where you completed Unfinished Comedy World. There, among the stone barriers, you will find the second Mysterious Ore.
- The next Ore can be found in the Kuisel Clockwork Workshop during the Road to the Singularity quest.
- Travel to the Academic Assembly Hall Waypoint and climb onto the destroyed building on the right.
- After completing the Light of the Depth quest, you can unlock the passage to the fifth Mysterious Ore. You can shorten your route by jumping into the water from the Mary-Ann Memorial Park Archon Statue.
