The mission rotate and sometimes not all can be played. The primary objective of the mission is a strike: The primary smelter's been disabled at Manufactorum HL17-36. Get it operating, whatever it takes. - Explicator Zola.
Your secondary objective in HL17-36 Smelter Complex is to seize two Grimoires or three Scriptures
Grimoire Locations
Grimoire Location 1
Early in the mission, during the objective "Find the Supply Elevator", on the far left side after you open the big door. You can find the Grimoire in the room pictured below.
Grimoire Location 2
The first Grimoire location in the Warhammer 40,000: Darktide mission HL17-36 Smelter Complex can be found during the objective "Find the Supply Elevator" while you are inside a big room in which you can see lava flowing beneath you. Go as far as possible to the left side of the room to find the first Grimoire.
To better showcase you this here is a video of the location.
Grimoire Location 3
During the objective "Find the Supply Elevator". After ascending a short flight of stairs, you can turn right to find a side room. Inside this room, the Grimoire can spawn in the corner, behind a vertical pipe..
Grimoire Location 4
The second Grimoire location can be found right after the objective "Neutralize the Daemonic Growth". The next step of the mission is to "Activate the Furnace".
Run into the next room and on the right side you will notice a greenish glow. That is where you can find the Grimoire.
You can also watch the video to get a better understanding of the location.
Grimoire Location 5
During the objective "Proceed to the 'Fab", you will cross over a large room with several floors and many stairways. At the end of this area is a large door that needs to be opened to continue the level. Instead of going straight to the exit, go down to the lowest level and look around for the bridge in the first picture below. Then follow the directions in the captions below to find the Grimoire location.
Grimoire Location 6
Very close to Grimoire Location 5, in the same room. Go down to the lowest level - you can find the Grimoire next to a couple of barrels, at the edge of the room.
Scripture Locations
Scripture Location 1
During the "Enter Metalfab HL-17-36" objective, look for a room to the left of the main path through the mission. Inside this room, you can find the Scripture on the left wall.
Scripture Location 2
In the room where you have to fight while waiting for the Supply Elevator, you can find the Scripture in the corner
Scripture Location 3
During the "Find the Smelters" objective. After coming out of the airlock, look straight to the crates. The Scripture is on top.

During the "Find the Smelters" Objective. Drop down into the room that contains a large machine to the left of the entrance. You can find the Scripture behind this machine.
We hope this Warhammer 40,000: Darktide guide was useful to find the two Grimoires in the mission HL17-36 Smelter Complex, Manufactory HL-18-36, "Metalfab 36".
