Received from: automatically after finding an anomaly [Zanethu]

Description: The only way to activate this quest is to find an anomaly and you must begin by opening the galaxy map. Choose the Hourglass Nebula and then travel to the planet [Zanethu] located in the Ploitari system. Confirm that you want to scan the planet's surface. Keep holding the right mouse button and move the mouse until the transmission heard in the background will be very clear. A white dot should appear on the surface and you must click the left mouse button to send a probe there. Land on the surface to officially start this quest.

Notice that you'll be exploring this map alone. Thankfully you've got nothing to worry about, because you won't encounter any enemy units. Head forward and after the first quake has occured use one of your weapons to fire at a metal object (first screenshot). Wait for the object to land on a lower level and then use a metal beam (second screenshot) to start moving in that direction.

Keep heading forward until you get to a fragment of the ship's hull. Use the next beam to get to a lower platform and eventually you should be able to find a container with 500 units of iridium. You may now proceed towards a new beam - this time you'll be moving upwards (second screenshot).

As soon as you've reached a new platform look around to find a second container with 500 units of iridium. Approach a nearby metal beam (first screenshot) after you've taken the minerals and climb on top of it. Head to the other side of the abyss (second screenshot).

You'll have to climb again after you make your way to the other side. Begin exploring the upper section of the ship and it shouldn't take long before you find a new metal beam (first screenshot). Get to the other side and turn right. Choose a nearby bridge (second screenshot) and don't forget to locate a new container with 500 units of iridium.

You may now choose a nearby ramp (first screenshot) to get to a lower platform. Ignore the fact that the ramp will suddenly move, because you're not in any danger. Turn around after reaching your destination and find the last container (second screenshot) with 500 units of iridium.

You may now start moving towards a red zone seen in the distance and you can get there by choosing the last metal beam (first screenshot). Approach the console and use it. Doing this will initiate an interesting cut-scene and you'll return to the Normandy.
