There are five fossil locations for Genshin Impact players to find in the underground section of The Chasm in Paleontological Investigation. It doesn't matter which one they take a photo of first. All that matters is that you capture a picture of all five at some point.

They're also known as Strange Rocks. Completing Paleontological Investigation will give you the following rewards:

It's worth noting that completing this quest and the Hydrological and Mycological Investigation quests will give players the Academia Recommendation Letter. Currently, this item is useless but may be valuable when the player travels to Sumeru.

Use the eastern Teleport Waypoint in the Ad-Hoc Main Tunnel and head south. Eventually, you'll glide down to some wooden platforms where there are some Treasure Hoarders. Take care of these foes, and then head to the yellow glow in front of the Strange Rock to take a picture of it.

Taking at least one picture and talking to Khedive will start Paleontological Investigation.

Teleport to the northern Teleport Waypoint in The Chasm Main Mining Area, and head north to the second Strange Rock's location in Genshin Impact. This one will be near a pinkish-purplish crystal.

This Strange Rock resembles the last one. Similarly, you can go to the yellow glow and take a picture of this wall.

This Strange Rock is the hardest to access since it requires players to use an Anemo character on an Anemo Monument to create some upward air. Otherwise, players can soar up to the top and find a Luxurious Chest here.

This Strange Rock is located on the other side of the area.

There are only two more Strange Rocks to find in Genshin
