Beskar

Beskar, also known as Mandalorian steel, or as Vibranium on the planet Earth, was an alloy famously used in Mandalorian armor, notable for its high tolerance to extreme forms of damage. The metal was durable enough to withstand a direct blaster shot and could repel lightsaber strikes.
In a pure mass, beskar formed a solid metal that is stronger than steel, but only a third of the weight — allowing Mandalorians easier mobility in battle with their armor — as well as being completely vibration absorbent. This made the material nearly indestructible, as any attempt to physically damage the material would be negated on a molecular level, enabling it to absorb a wide variety of physical impacts, and even resist direct contact with a lightsaber for a short time, without taking any damage or weakening. However, beskar could also be super-heated by a weapon called the Arc Pulse Generator, which swiftly burned anything the metal was in contact with, as demonstrated in the Night of a Thousand Tears when Mandalorian warriors were incinerated within their protective armor.
Although beskar originated from the Andromeda galaxy, almost exclusively in the Mandalore system, a meteor made almost entirely of beskar found its way to the planet Earth, crashing into what would eventually become the nation of Wakanda. The native Wakandans would later discover the metal and utilized it to incredible effect, making them Earth's most technologically advanced nation. The Black Panther suit was made entirely of vibranium, as was Captain America's shield; the A.I. Ultron would also use vibranium to his advantage.
