Name Source Uses
Adamant / Adamantine Greek mythology As a noun , adamant has long been used to designate any impenetrably or unyieldingly hard substance and , formerly , a legendary stone/rock or mineral of impenetrable hardness and with many other properties , often identified with diamond or lodestone . The English word is used both as a noun and an adjective and is derived from the Latin : adamans , adamantem [ accusative ] referring to the property of impregnable , diamondlike hardness , or to describe a very firm/resolute position , itself from the Greek word adamastos meaning untameable . Diamond is also derived from the same word . Adamant and the literary form adamantine ( utilising the suffix -ine meaning 'of the nature of ' or 'made of ' ) occur in many works . In mythology Kronos was said to have used an adamantine sickle to castrate his father Uranus ; in Prometheus Bound , Prometheus is bound to the rocks in adamantine bonds infrangible , in Virgil 's Aeneid ( in which the gates of Tartarus are protected by columns of solid adamantine ) and in Paradise Lost , in which adamant and adamantine are mentioned eight times to describe the gates of hell , Satan 's shield , fallen angel 's armour and Satan 's chains . In fiction Adamant is referred to in The Faerie Queene , Gulliver 's Travels , A Midsummer Night 's Dream , The Lord of the Rings , His Dark Materials trilogy , and the games Final Fantasy and RuneScape and many more besides . Adamantine is referred to in the film Forbidden Planet ( as adamantine steel ) , in many books such as Mary Shelley 's Mathilda , and Mark Twain 's The Adventures of Tom Sawyer , as well as many games including Dungeons & Dragons . The word adamant is used as the basis for other fictional materials such as Adamantium ( see below ) , Adamantite ( see below ) , Adamantle ( from the Sims ) , and Adiamante ( from L. E. Modesitt Jr. 's 1996 novel of the same name )
Adamantite Numerous works A metal ore that appears in a number of fictional universes . In Final Fantasy it is a material used to create armour , its source being from another world and its properties including being able to contain great amounts of energy . In World of Warcraft , it is an uncommon ore used to produce weapons and armour of uncommon , rare and epic grade . In the Dark Elf book series by Salvatore set in the Dungeons & Dragons universe it is used to create drow weaponry . It is also used for armour in The Elder Scrolls III , and in the game Terraria it is a red ore used to produce armour and other items besides . The word is an extension of the English noun and adjective adamant ( see entry above ) adding the suffix '-ite ' which is often used to form the names of minerals
Adamantium Marvel Comics A fictional metal alloy that appears in the Marvel Universe , first appearing in Marvel Comics ' Avengers # 66 ( July 1969 ) , by writer Roy Thomas and artists Barry Windsor-Smith and Syd Shores . Although it is first presented as part of the character Ultron 's outer shell , it is best known as the substance bonded to the character Wolverine 's skeleton and claws . The defining quality of adamantium is its practical indestructibility . Adamantium is not depicted as being a naturally occurring metal but rather as having been inadvertently invented by the fictional American metallurgist Dr. Myron MacLain in an attempt to recreate his prior discovery , a unique alloy of steel and vibranium . Despite its potential applications in armament and armature , adamantium is rarely used due to its high cost and inability to be reshaped . Other forms of adamantium of varying durability are mentioned within the Marvel Universe , including Secondary Adamantium , Adamantium Beta and Carbonadium . Aside from Ultron 's outer shell and Wolverine 's skeleton and claws , Adamantium is associated with a number of other characters and implements including , but not limited to , Bullseye 's spinal column , certain iterations of Captain America 's shield and Lady Deathstrike 's skeleton and talons . The word is an extension of the English noun and adjective adamant ( see entry above ) adding the Neo-Latin '-ium ' to denote a metallic name . Adamantium is also used in the Games Workshop universe of Warhammer 40000 and the MMORPG Maplestory
Administratium Scientific in-joke First referenced in a 1989 issue of The Physics Teacher . It was apparently discovered by the fictional Thomas Kyle , who was awarded an Ig Nobel Prize for physics for his discovery , and it is a parody on bureaucracy of scientific establishments and on descriptions of newly discovered chemical elements
Administrontium Scientific in-joke Similar to Administratium and a variation of the joke . It was referenced in a 1993 print
Aether Magic : The Gathering A powerful substance in the MtG multiverse that is found on every plane , but abundant on the plane of Kaladesh .

Atium Mistborn book series A metal that forms the body and power of the shard Ruin . If an Allomancer burns the metal , it allows the user to see a few seconds into the future as a ghostly image overlaid on the present . This allows the user to gain a significant advantage in combat , as it allow them to know every move their opponent will make . This is cancelled out if the opponent burns atium or electrum themselves , as it causes a feedback loop and causes the user to see a mess of possible futures . It is extremely valuable in the Final Empire , as it is both very rare and hoarded by the Lord Ruler . The only place it is found is in the pits of Hathsin , where small nuggets are formed in geodes mined by slaves . Using allomancy near the crystals that form the geodes destroys them . When used by a Feruchemist , it allows them to store age and , if compounded , can result in a complete stop of ageing . Its name comes from the holder of the shard , Ati . in the Wax and Wayne era , no samples exist and it is referred to as 'the lost metal ' . It forms the alloy Malatium , also known as the eleventh metal , a metal that allows the user to see past versions of other people . A misting that burns atium is known as a seer . Hemalurgic effects are unknown
Australium Team Fortress 2 An extremely valuable element appearing in Team Fortress 2 by Valve . In-game , it appears as a special type of weapon , and as the fuel for the rocket in the map SD_Doomsday in the Special Delivery game mode . In the bonus comics featured on the Team Fortress website , their role is fleshed out more ; The Life-Extending machines used by The Administrator , Blutarch , Redmond , and Gray Mann are powered by Australium , and a large part of the plot revolves around hiding the vast stores of Australium Their role in the story is that the material , found in Australia , hence the name Australium , makes one smarter over time , but at the cost of increasing 'manliness and beard levels ' in those who use it . As mentioned above , the name comes from the country of Australia and the Neo-Latin '-ium ' used to denote a metallic name . Its appearance is similar to the real-life element gold
Bavarium Just Cause 3 Discovered by Medici 's tyrannical ruler Sebastiano Di Ravello in the late 1980s , Bavarium is referred to as a supermineral in reference to its near-infinite potential . Exclusive to Medici , Bavarium is at the core of much of the country 's experimental weaponry and equipment- which , as of the Bavarium Sea Heist DLC , includes gravitational manipulators and personal force fields -as well as a major export ; Di Ravello is able to use it as a bargaining chip when dealing with the Agency . In-game , Bavarium- in its refined form , at least -is shown to be highly volatile and prone to large , violent explosions- a small Bavarium-based charge is capable of instantly destroying all but the largest of the game 's Chaos Objects
Bolognium / Bolonium Various sources A metallic element with variable properties ; a substitute for any unspecified substance or element ; or in science fiction writing , a substance or process invented to circumvent explanation or impossibility . A humorous story from 1926 about the development of alloys for special purposes , describes Bolognium as a metallic element with properties similar to Gafnium , with which it forms alloys impervious to attacks by mice . Bolognium may also refer to any unspecified substance or element : if not oil then beryllium , and if not beryllium then bolognium , do n't worry about whether it is mercury or lead or cadmium or 'bolognium ' . Noted science fiction writer David Gerrold attributes the use of the term in science fiction writing to Larry Niven , the author of Ringworld , who used it to describe imaginary materials or processes capable of explaining properties unachievable through known or scientifically-postulated means . In Worlds of Wonder , Gerrold describes two examples from Ringworld : scrith , a substance strong enough to be used for the construction of a ring one hundred and eighty million miles in diameter , and a character deliberately bred for the property of luck . Gerrold refers to bolognium as technobabble , and cautions writers against overusing it , or using it carelessly , as doing so undermines the illusion of reality upon which good science fiction relies . The term itself has appeared in episodes of The Simpsons , in which Bolognium , atomic symbol Bo , appears in the place of Molybdenum , atomic number 42 , on promotional copies of the periodic table produced by Oscar Mayer ( its atomic weight is delicious or snacktacular ) , and in Futurama , where Cubert Farnsworth exclaims , your explanations are pure weapons-grade bolognium ! Although most references to Bolognium are intentionally humorous , in Star Trek : The Eugenics Wars , Greg Cox refers to the bolognium shielding of Klingon warp nacelles
Bombastium Disney Originally appearing in Uncle Scrooge # 17 ( 1957 ) by Carl Barks , Bombastium is stated to be the rarest element in the world . Even though it is very coveted , its usage potential is not entirely known . One characteristic is that it tastes different every time one tries it , and scientists eventually discovered that one atom of bombastium dropped into a barrel of water becomes one barrel of ice cream : a different flavor of ice cream each time . To avoid evaporation , bombastium must be kept frozen . In the story , when this totally new element was discovered Scrooge tries to secure the entire supply - a ball of Bombastium approximately the size of a large turnip . Terrified that his acquisition will melt before he can make a profit , Scrooge drags Donald Duck and his nephews on a voyage to the South Pole to safeguard his investment , but he has not reckoned on the ruthless determination of the Brutopian agents he outbid to achieve it . Bombastium represents a play on words ( bomb and bombastic ) that negotiates Cold War hysteria surrounding the arms race and the threat of Armageddon provoked by the development of the H-bomb . Barks 's tale is also grounded in fears . The substance is later used in the Duck Tales series
Bureaucratium Scientific in-joke Similar to Administratium and variation of the joke . In this version of the joke , Bureaucratium is an element which has a negative half-life , becoming more massive and sluggish as time goes by
Byzanium Raise the Titanic ! Byzanium is a fictional element within the book Raise the Titanic ! and its film adaptation , which serves as a main focus of the story arc . It is a powerful radioactive material sought after by both the Americans and Russians for use as either an energy source for a missile defense system or an atomic superbomb . The largest known natural source of Byzanium was on the island of Novaya Zemlya , which was mined in the early 20th century and supposedly taken aboard the ill-fated RMS Titanic during her first and only voyage
Carbonadium Marvel Comics In the Marvel Comics universe , Carbonadium is a form of Adamantium that is developed the USSR and used by the villain Deadpool , whose katanas are made with the material , and Omega Red , whose retractable metal tentacles are composed of the radioactive metal alloy . Carbonadium is nearly as strong as Adamantium , but more flexible . It is also used in the armor suit of Moon Knight in the third series of that comic
Cavorite The First Men in the Moon In the H.G . Wells novel , a metal created by the physicist Cavor which has the property of blocking gravity waves . This makes his space vehicle selectively immune to the pull of gravity , allowing it to choose which heavenly bodies it may or may not fall towards via the opening or sliding of outer hull Cavorite windows or blinds . This steers , accelerates and decelerates the spacecraft , dependent on available gravitational forces , somewhat analogous to a tacking behavior of a sailed ship
Celestial Bronze Greek Mythology , Rick Riordan books ( introduced in The Lightning Thief ) A magical form of bronze mined from Mount Olympus , tempered in Mount Etna , and cooled in the River Lethe . Can not come into physical contact with non-magical creatures . Lethal to monsters

As the name suggests , Chlorophyte holds various plant-themed properties , and can be used to craft armor and weapons that harness the powers of plants . It can be combined with glowing mushrooms to create Shroomite , a blue fungi-themed version of the same metal used in ranged weapons and armor , or with ectoplasm to create Spectre Bars , a glowing ghost-themed metal used in various magical weapons and mage armor
Cobalt Thorium G Dr. Strangelove , Big Guy and Rusty the Boy Robot In Dr. Strangelove it is an element used in the Russians ' doomsday device .
