One of these is the White Iron Chunk, a forging material that can be used to craft weapons from Prototypes and to craft Fine Enhancement Ore. Use this guide for everything you need to know about White Iron Chunks.
Genshin Impact White Iron Chunk guide
"Skilled hands can make this into something brilliant."
Location
White Iron Chunks are usually found in mines and mountainous areas, particularly in and around Brightcrown Canyon, Wolvendom, Musk Reef, and the peninsula to the southwest of the Dawn Winery. To harvest them, you will need to attack them with any weapon, though claymores are the most efficient for getting this done. For more specific location information, check out this resource tracker.
