Unlocking the "Inventing the Past" quest in The Sims 4's Blast from the Past event requires locating Plathinum and Ironyum. Fortunately, finding these resources is straightforward.
This guide explains how to quickly obtain Plathinum and Ironyum in The Sims 4:
To acquire Plathinum and Ironyum, simply locate areas with rocks and dirt mounds – parks are ideal. Pause the game to carefully scan your surroundings. Once you spot a suitable mound, dig it up. It may require a few attempts, but you'll eventually unearth the necessary resources.
If dirt mounds are scarce, speeding up in-game time can encourage their faster generation. However, avoid prolonged periods of accelerated time to prevent missing digging opportunities.
