Name Source Notes
Adamant / Adamantine Greek mythology Adamant has long meant any impenetrably or unyieldingly hard substance and, formerly, a legendary stone or mineral of impenetrable hardness and many other properties, often identified with diamond or lodestone.[1] The English word is both a noun and an adjective; from Latin adamans 'impregnable, diamondlike hardness; very firm/resolute position', from Greek adamastos 'untameable' (hence also the word diamond). Adamant or adamantine (suffix -ine 'of the nature of' or 'made of') occur in many works. In myth, Kronos uses an adamantine sickle to castrate his father Uranus; in Prometheus Bound, Prometheus is bound to rocks "in adamantine bonds infrangible";[2] in Virgil's Aeneid, columns of solid adamantine protect the gates of Tartarus; in Paradise Lost, adamant and adamantine are mentioned eight times to describe the gates of hell, Satan's shield, fallen angel's armor and Satan's chains. In fiction, Adamant is referred to in the film Forbidden Planet (as "adamantine steel"), many books (such as The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, The Faerie Queene, Gulliver's Travels, His Dark Materials, The Lord of the Rings, Mathilda by Mary Shelley, and A Midsummer Night's Dream) and many games (such as Dungeons & Dragons, Final Fantasy and RuneScape). The word adamant is the basis for fictional materials such as Adamantium and Adamantite (see below), Adamantle in The Sims, and Adiamante in L. E. Modesitt Jr.'s 1996 novel of the same name.
Adamantite
 Various A metal ore in many fictional universes. In Final Fantasy it is used to make armor; its source is in another world; it can contain great amounts of energy. In
The Elder Scrolls III, and in the game Terraria it is a red ore used to produce armor and other items. The name is from the word adamant
(see above), with suffix -ite for names of minerals.
Adamantium Marvel Comics Fictional alloy. First appears in Marvel's
Maplestory
.
Administratium Scientific in-joke First referenced in a 1989 issue of The Physics Teacher.
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.[11]
Aether Final Fantasy XIV In the
MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV, Aether is one of the main elements of life and magic in the world.[12][13]
Magic: The Gathering
shared fictional universe and the use of the word in several Magic cards implies that casting magic involves channeling and manipulating Aether. "Summoning" the creatures around which combat and much of gameplay in Magic revolves is described as "pulling (them) from the Aether".[14][15][16]
Afraidium Robots (2005 film) An element made up by Fender. Fender says it is yellow and tastes like chicken.
Antidermis Bionicle Greenish-black gas; forms the essence of the Makuta, the main villains of the series. They usually keep the antidermis inside suits of armor.
Aquelium, terrelium, and plutulium
The Goddess of Atvatabar
 		Three precious metals found in Earth's interior. Aquelium is a bright green metal derived from the interior ocean, and terrelium is a vermilion metal found only in Atvatabar. When these two metals come in contact, they produce a harnessable form of energy called magnicity.
Arenak Skylark series A synthetic metal made by Osnomians. Vastly superior to the best steel. Usually transparent, but substances may be added to make it colored or opaque. Requires salt, which is very rare on Osnome, as a catalyst in its manufacture.[17]
Arsonium I Expect You to Die Green liquid with symbol Ar and atomic number 7. Makes a compound that is corrosive to copper when mixed with Galine and Sanite, and a compound that produces clouds when exposed to air when mixed with Regalite. The real element 7 is nitrogen; and Ar = argon.
Atium Mistborn Metal. Forms the body and power of the
Wax and Wayne
era, no samples exist and it is called 'the lost metal'. It forms the alloy Malatium, or 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 Extremely valuable element in Team Fortress 2 by Valve. In-game, it is 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 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.[18] Australium, found in Australia, hence the name, makes one smarter over time, but at the cost of increasing 'manliness and beard levels' in those who use it. It looks similar to the real element gold.
Bavarium
 Just Cause 3 Discovered by Medici's tyrannical ruler Sebastiano Di Ravello in the late 1980s. Is called a "supermineral" due 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 gravity 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 (at least in refined form) is shown to be highly volatile and prone to big explosions; a small Bavarium-based charge can instantly destroy all but the largest of the game's Chaos Objects.
Berynium
 Screamers (1995 film) Berynium is a minable isotope discovered by NEB (New Economic Block) at New Alamo on Sirius 6B on 16 July, AD 2064. Berynium is the solution to the world's energy crisis, as a spoonful of it can take you from Earth to Saturn in a single day. Mining it unfortunately releases lethal quantities of radiation and pollution. Berynium can also be found on Triton 4.
Bolognium / Bolonium Various Metallic element with variable properties; or in sci-fi, a substance or process invented to circumvent explanation or impossibility. Or any unspecified substance: "if not oil then beryllium, and if not beryllium then bolognium",
atomic weight is "delicious" or "snacktacular"),[23] and in Futurama, where Cubert Farnsworth exclaims, "your explanations are pure weapons-grade bolognium!"[24] Most references to Bolognium are intentionally humorous; but in Star Trek: The Eugenics Wars, Greg Cox refers to the "bolognium shielding" of Klingon warp nacelles.[25]
Bombastium
 Disney[26] Originally appearing in Uncle Scrooge #17 (1957) by Carl Barks, Bombastium is stated to be the world's rarest element. Very coveted, but its potential use is not fully known. It tastes different every time one tries it. Scientists find that one atom of it 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.
Duck Tales
series.
Bonnevillium
Giants
 series 		One of three stable transuranic elements predicted by the new science of nucleonics in James P. Hogan's Giants series. Not naturally occurring outside of neutron stars, but trace amounts are created at the detonation of nucleonic weapons.
Bureaucratium Scientific in-joke Similar to Administratium and variation of the joke. Bureaucratium is an element with a negative half-life, becoming more massive and sluggish as time goes by.
Byzanium Raise the Titanic![29] Fictional element in the book Raise the Titanic! and its film adaptation, which is a main focus of the story arc. It is a powerful radioactive material sought 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 Titanic during its first and only voyage.
Carbonadium
 Marvel Comics A form of adamantium, developed in the USSR and used by the anti-hero Deadpool, whose katanas are made with the material, and the villain Omega Red, whose retractable metal tentacles are made of it. 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. It emits toxic radiation and can impede superhuman healing factors.
Carbon Silicate Lace The Expanse A material derived from alien Protomolecule, used as hull protective plating for ships. The Rocinante was one such ship upgraded to use the material, whilst other ships were constructed with it as an original part of the hull. The material itself contains no protomolecule, having been developed by simply observing the molecular structure.
Cargonite 4D Man A super-dense, impenetrable substance developed by Tony Nelson. His brother Scott steals his work and starts fooling around with it, eventually gaining the ability to pass through solid matter.
Caterium Satisfactory Gold-like metal used to create highly advanced technology in mid and late game.
Cavorite The First Men in the Moon In the H.G. Wells novel, a metal created by the physicist Cavor. Blocks gravity. Thus his spacecraft is selectively immune to gravity; one can choose which heavenly bodies it falls toward, by opening or sliding outer hull Cavorite "windows or blinds". This steers, accelerates and slows the spacecraft, dependent on available gravitational fields, somewhat analogous to a "tacking" behavior of a sailed ship.
Celestial Bronze Rick Riordan (Introduced in The Lightning Thief.) Magic form of bronze mined from Mount Olympus, tempered in Mount Etna, and cooled in the River Lethe. Cannot touch non-magical creatures. Lethal to monsters.
Ceratanium Mega Man Ceratanium (ceramic titanium) is shown to be quite useful. It is sturdy yet lightweight; and Magnet Man in the
paramagnetic. It is thus used in multiple robots, being the key component in Mega Man's
armor, the Metal Blades of Metal Man, Cut Man's Rolling Cutter, and Hard Man's body.
Chelonium Discworld According to the wizards at the Unseen University, the species Chelys galactica, including Great A'Tuin, are largely made of this element. Its properties are apparently known to them (but not to the readers of the series's books).
Chlorophyte Terraria A bright-green metal found deep beneath the jungle, implied to be the toughest ore that can be mined from the ground (topped only by Luminite, a material dropped by the final boss). True to its name, Chlorophyte has 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 make 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.
Chronoton (or chroniton) Various From Greek χρόνος (Chronos, 'time') + -ον (-on, 'elementary particle'). Associated with manipulating or traveling through time in Star Trek; and in Futurama, where it also has rejuvenating effects. A chronoton bomb in Teen Titans destroys chronotons in a given area, stopping that area's progression through time. The material has also been featured in Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.
Cobalt Thorium G[30][31]
Big Guy and Rusty the Boy Robot
 		In Strangelove, an element used in the Russian doomsday device. Both (real) elements
fallout
, which agrees with the sense in which "Cobalt Thorium G" is used in the movie.

In the "Wages of Fire" episode

Big Guy and Rusty the Boy Robot
, it is revealed that the BGY-11 is powered by a Cobalt Thorium G power core.

Coaxium Star Wars A material introduced in 2018 film Solo: A Star Wars Story. It was mined on the planet Kessel and used as an extremely potent spacecraft fuel.
Computronium Philosophy and futurism Condensed matter "computing substrate" that has the maximum computing power theoretically possible.[32] Some authors have speculated on the possibility of turning entire planets, or even the whole universe into computronium and what this would mean for humanity, or indeed, if humanity would even be needed after creating intelligences of such "Godlike power".[33]
Collapsium The Terro-Human Future History First mentioned by H. Beam Piper in his Terro-Human Future History series. Piper describes it as "the electron shells of the atoms collapsed upon the nuclei, the atoms in actual contact".[34] Collapsium can only be worked by abrasion with cosmic rays. Resistant to both ordinary matter projectiles and all forms of radiation, and can be plated on to ordinary steel to form a protective layer. The main use for collapsium is as armor for spacecraft.
The Collapsium A material made of black holes; can be used to warp space and time in accordance with the wishes of its inventor.[35]
Corrodium Ben 10 High-energy-yielding and unpredictable extraterrestrial mineral from Anur Khufos; used as a power source. Very dangerous: those exposed to it can mutate into hideous creatures (once exposure to Corrodium is removed, the mutants return to normal). The only ones immune to its mutative effects are those from the Anur system.
Dagal Skylark A synthetic metal made by the Urvanians. Superior to the Arenak made by their enemies, the Osnomians.[17]
Dalekanium Doctor Who (Introduced in The Dalek Invasion of Earth.) Fictional bonded polycarbide material from the Daleks' homeworld of Skaro. Is, among other things, a powerful but unstable explosive that will even affect the Daleks' body casings (and, ironically, is also the material used in the makeup of said body casings).
Dark Metal DC Comics A metal discovered by Batman in the Dark Nights: Metal storyline. It has the power to link the known multiverse with the "Dark Multiverse."
Dilithium Star Trek Dilithium (Li2) exists (two covalently bonded lithium atoms); but something else is referred to in fiction. In Star Trek, dilithium occurs in crystal form and serves as a controlling agent in the matter-antimatter reaction cores used to power the faster-than-light warp drive. In the original series, dilithium crystals are rare and cannot be replicated, making the search for them a recurring plot element. When the crystals appear in the original series they look much like petalite,[36] an important ore of lithium. The name dilithium has led to speculation on whether it is meant as an isotope of lithium or a compound with two lithium atoms.[36] But in a periodic table in a Next Generation episode, it is shown as an element with chemical symbol Dt and atomic number 87, which is in reality francium. Star Trek: The Next Generation Technical Manual gives a chemical formula made of real and fictional elements, instead of treating dilithium as its own element.
Divinium (E115) Call of Duty Extraterrestrial element found in meteorites. The German research team Group 935 discovers it in northern
radioactively
.
Duodecimates The Face Hypothetical stable elements beyond atomic number 120. Such elements are predicted in the real world as an "Island of stability". In the novel by Jack Vance, duodecimates were deposited on a planet, Dar Sai, by the explosion of a nearby star. The planet's economy comes to depend on mining and sale of duodecimate ores. It is not revealed what the substance is actually used for.
Duranium
 Star Trek The fictional metal duranium is referred to in many episodes of Star Trek as extremely hard alloys used in starship hulls and hand-held tools.
Dureum
Lensman
 		The fictional synthetic metal dureum has a higher moment of inertia than regular materials. It takes more work to move or stop moving than other objects of the same mass.
Dust RWBY Naturally occurring, crystalline energy source found in the world of Remnant. The Aura of Humans and Faunus can activate it. Dust comes in a variety of types, each with different properties such as fire, ice, wind, gravity etc. There are four main kinds; these can be blended naturally or artificially to create new kinds. Crystalline Dust is stable enough to stay out in the open, but powdered Dust is highly volatile, and must be stored in special containers for safety. Dust has a variety of uses, including as a power source for machinery such as airships and robots. Dust may also be used for combat in the form of Dust-filled bullets, as powder placed inside weapons and clothing, or in crystal form for raw power. Dust stops functioning if taken outside of the atmosphere of Remnant, so it can't be used for space travel. In the series, most of Remnant's supply of Dust comes from the Schnee Dust Company, which mines, purifies, and exports the material throughout the world.
Dysonium The Orville A mildly radioactive transuranic element used to power spacecraft and certain planet-bound facilities, named after real-world scientist Freeman Dyson. It is found all throughout the Milky Way and was discovered on Earth's mantle during the early 22nd century. However, it can also be synthesized. Dysonium fuel cores look like glowing, blue spheres.
Element Zero (0-Ez) Mass Effect Element Zero, or "Eezo", is naturally created in dying stars and harvested from supernovas. Is used to generate the mass effect fields of many advanced technologies in the Mass Effect universe. Applying a positive or negative charge to this substance reduces or increases the mass of any objects within the emission field. Also found in organics, and the source of biotic abilities. Nodules forming throughout the bodies of most species, such as the Asari. Introduced into human species via alleged experiments by a shadowy government agency.
Element 99 Singularity Radioactive orange element with a lead-grey natural form. Purified ore glows orange. Discovered by Soviet scientists looking for uranium for Stalin's nuclear program. An island off the Kamchatka Peninsula codenamed Katorga-12 is sectioned off as a top secret research, mining, and refining facility. After an incident with the E99 generator, the E99 radiation is spread all over the island. E99 can warp time, mutate living organisms grotesquely, and provide a clean, if dangerous, energy source. The real element 99, einsteinium, has no such qualities.
Element 115 Ufology, various works Widely known within the sci-fi and
UFO community; since, according to ufologist Bob Lazar, it is used by alien engines to generate anti-gravity and propulsion. The real element 115 is moscovium
, a synthetic element with an extremely short half-life.
Elerium-115 X-COM: UFO Defense Elerium is the main power source and propellant of alien technology in this video game, where the player runs X-COM, an international, top secret, paramilitary organization fighting an alien invasion.
Energon Transformers A substance or form of energy serving as the primary fuel source for the Cybertronian/transformer race. Often takes the form of a liquid, most often as "energon cubes" refined from other sources of chemical energy.[37]
Eridium Borderlands A priceless alien mineral in the Borderlands franchise
Etherium Magic: The Gathering A magical Aether-infused alloy found on Esper, one of the five shards of the plane of Alara.[38] Most of Esper's inhabitants have parts of their body replaced by etherium.[39] It is also used to craft artifacts like the Filigree texts, sacred texts worked in etherium containing the Vedalken's accumulated knowledge.[40]
Evolution stones Pokémon A variety of stones with magical properties, they have the power to invoke "evolution" in some species of Pokémon. There are currently ten known stones - Fire Stones, Thunder Stones, Leaf Stones, Water Stones, Moon Stones, Sun Stones, Shiny Stones, Dawn Stones, Dusk Stones, and Ice Stones. Some Pokémon need one of these stones to achieve their final evolutions, while others can use one or more to achieve a different evolution than standard. For example, Eevee can evolve into eight different species, with five of them accessed through one of the above stones.
Feminum Wonder Woman Found only on
Paradise Island. Is the indestructible metal out of which Wonder Woman's bracelets are made. Wonder Woman, and other inhabitants of Paradise Island, use the bracelets to deflect bullets. The material features in the Wonder Woman television series in its fifth episode, "The Feminum Mystique Part 2", which aired on 8 November 1976.[citation needed
]
Fraudulin Monty Python's Flying Circus First used in 1970 in the "Crelm Toothpaste" sketch of the season 2 episode "How Not To Be Seen", and again in 1971 when the same sketch was re-released as part of the Pythons' film And Now for Something Completely Different. A chemical of obscure composition, ostensibly a powerful preventative of tooth decay and invariably referred to as "the miracle ingredient, fraudulin", it is a direct parody on the use of questionably effective "miracle additives" in advertising puffery.
Frinkonium The Simpsons Element, invented by Springfield scientist Professor Frink.
Galine I Expect You To Die Blue liquid with atomic number 3 and symbol Gi that makes a compound that is corrosive to copper when mixed with Arsonium and Sanite, and a compound that explodes when exposed to air when mixed with Nanite. The real element 3 is lithium.
Gaulau Glinda of Oz In L. Frank Baum's last Oz book, published in 1920, Glinda says that the magical "rare mineral powder called gaulau" is "more wonderful even than radium". The text describes it as "a grayish powder, the tiny grains of which constantly moved as if impelled by some living force". When a magician burns a small amount of gaulau, its magical activity, directed by the correct spoken words or incantations, is capable of powering magical heavy machinery, including an expanding steel column which lifts an entire underwater village (sealed under a glass dome) from the bottom of a large lake to the surface, and holds it at the surface indefinitely, until more gaulau is used to submerge the village again.
Gigarium Godzilla: Final Wars Also known as Giganume. Takes the form of a powerful, red, highly explosive energy blast, which is fired from the kaiju Gigan's eye. Splits into smaller explosive blasts upon nearing a target.
Genevium Giants series Rarest of three stable transuranic elements predicted by the new science of nucleonics in James P. Hogan's Giants series. Not naturally occurring outside of neutron stars; trace amounts of genevium are detectable after detonation of nucleonic weapons, but it requires higher yields to produce than hyperium and bonnevillium.
Harbenite Tarzan at the Earth's Core Appears in Edgar Rice Burroughs' novel Tarzan at the Earth's Core.[41] Harbenite, named after its discoverer, Dr. von Harben, is a metal found in the fictional African country Urambi and is described as lighter than cork and stronger than steel. Harbenite was used to build the O-220, a dirigible airship built for a rescue mission to the Earth's core in response to a radio distress call from David Innes and Abner Perry, the original discoverers of the inner world of Pellucidar in the novel At the Earth's Core.
Hedonium Philosophy, futurism Matter that is optimal for generating pleasure. Nick Bostrom investigates the desirability (or otherwise) of maximizing hedonism in this way. He invokes another fictional substance, computronium, to "tile the universe" with the maximal amount of hedonium.[42]
Hedrium Godzilla vs. Hedorah Acidic, sludge-like material which composes the kaiju Hedorah's body, which is also its primary method of attacking. Can also be used to shoot a crimson laser beam from the kaiju's eyes. Durable, but needs to be wet in order to function is vulnuerable to drying out, especially via electrocution.
Hihiirokane Various works Also spelled "hihi'irokane".[43] Katakana: ヒヒイロカネ or kanji: 緋々色金 It is a red-orange fantasy metal that is common in Japanese fiction.
Hyperium
 Giants series One of three stable transuranic elements predicted by the new science of nucleonics in James P. Hogan's Giants series. Not naturally occurring outside of neutron stars, but trace amounts are created in the detonation of nucleonic weapons.
Horonium Star Trek (Introduced in Those Old Scientists.) Rare material, used as a component in constructing the NX-01 Enterprise, and as a fuel for a time portal on Krulmuth-B.
Ice-nine Cat's Cradle A more stable
Ice Ih), which instead of melting when above 0°C (32°F), only melts at 45.8°C (114.4°F). When ice-nine comes in contact with liquid water below 45.8°C, it acts as a seed crystal
, and causes the solidification of the entire body of water, which quickly crystallizes as more ice-nine.
Imperial Gold Rick Riordan (Introduced in The Lost Hero.) Enchanted gold. Extremely harmful to magical creatures, but cannot harm non-magic ones.
Inerton Armageddon 2419 A.D. Synthetic material, made in a process which allows energy to be converted directly into matter (similar to the replicator later seen in Star Trek). Inerton is totally inert to almost all forces, including light, heat, and gravity; so it is cold to the touch and always pitch black, and completely weightless and indestructible to anything except disintegrator beams (which convert matter directly to energy in the reverse of the process that created the material).

Inerton is used mostly in hulls of futuristic airships, serving as both armor and as a lifting body, as well as in special belts worn by the characters which allow them to leap great distances by counterbalancing the weight of their bodies.

Inertron Legion of Super-Heroes The hardest substance in the DC Universe. Often used in the Legion of Super-Heroes comics, especially by Element Lad, who uses his transmutation ability to craft prisons and shields from it.
Inoson E. E. Smith's SkyLark series A synthetic metal; has "the theoretical ultimate in strength possible for any material possessing molecular structure". Much superior to the Dagal of the Urvanians or the Arenak of the Osnomians.[17]
Jerktonium It's a SpongeBob Christmas! A green superheavy element. Ingestion of jerktonium causes a bad attitude, but the effects are curable by song. Other side effects of ingesting this element include a fast growth of stubble, a look of fatigue radiated by bags under the eyelids, and thick eyebrows.
Jumbonium Futurama Very rare and valuable element with atoms big enough to be seen by naked eye. In the episode "

Katchin Dragon Ball Z Said to be the hardest material in the
Son Gohan
in order to test the sword's supposed legendary strength. The block of Katchin proceeds to snap the Z Sword when Gohan tries to slice it.
Kryptonite DC Comics A crystalline material, originally in various colors with separate effects, harmful to Kryptonians and created during the destruction of
retcon
of the DC Comics universe established green kryptonite as a compound and later issues had experiments by Batman and Luthor reestablish the Pre-Crisis versions of red, blue, and gold. Kryptonite has been found in the real world (according to its chemical composition) but has none of the properties or color variations of fictional kryptonite. However, DC Comics had previously described kryptonite as an alien element with a higher atomic number than known Earth elements.
Kyber crystal
 Star Wars A rare, semi-sentient, crystalline material found across the galaxy. Kyber crystals vary in shape and color, but all are deeply connected to
superweapons, including the planet destroying Death Star
.
Lerasium Mistborn A metal forming the body and power of the
shard
Preservation that makes any non-allomancer who ingests it an extremely powerful mistborn. All known samples are destroyed after the last was ingested by Elend Venture. It is the source of the Lord Ruler's and the first noble's Allomantic abilities, being found by Rashek at the well of ascension. Its Allomantic, Feruchemic and Hemalurgic powers are unknown. It is named after the holder of Preservation, Leras.
Lunarium Radar Men from the Moon "More powerful than uranium"; used by men from the Moon.
Mega Stones and Key Stones Pokémon Mega Stones are a set of marble-like stones used alongside a Key Stone to allow Pokémon to "Mega Evolve". A Pokémon holding its corresponding Mega Stone can link with its trainer to undergo a Mega Evolution during battle. Unlike standard evolution, Mega Evolution does not change the species of a Pokémon, but instead temporarily grants another form of that Pokémon with increased power, as indicated by its name being prefixed with "Mega" - after the battle, the Pokémon reverts to its usual form. There are 47 known Mega Stones, each associated with a different species of Pokémon, e.g. Gengar Mega Evolves with a Gengarite into Mega Gengar, though Charizard and Mewtwo each have two associated Mega Stones – Charizardite X and Charizardite Y, and Mewtwonite X and Mewtwonite Y – which Mega Evolves them into Mega Charizard X or Mega Charizard Y, and Mega Mewtwo X or Mega Mewtwo Y respectively. Key Stones are used by trainers to activate their Pokémon's Mega Evolution.
Metal X (Rovolon) E. E. Smith's SkyLark series An element discovered that facilitates conversion of the energy in metals (copper or uranium) and uses it as a propulsive or attractive force. The Norlaminians had already discovered this metal and named it Rovolon. However, they had only trace amounts found in meteorites.[17]
Meteorillium Return to Castle Wolfenstein Element found in meteors theorized to originate in the center of the galaxy. The Schutzstaffel's Special Projects Division discovers some of the rare element in the Baltic states. Oberführer Strasse's project book indicates that the SS Paranormal Division needs it for the resurrection of King Henry the Fowler. Strasse's lab in Norway refines the metal into its 317 isotope for use in the ceremony.
Mithril / Mythril Various Originally from in Tolkien's
MMORPG Guild Wars 2 as a blueish-silver metal used in crafting. In Defense of the Ancients, the multiplayer online battle arena version of Warcraft, players can buy the Mithril Hammer from the Main Shop. "Mithral" also features in the Dungeon Master series. It appears in armor form in The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. It appears as a cyan metal used to make armor and weapons in MapleStory. Mythril is also depicted as a teal-color metal used to craft armor, weapons, and tools in Terraria
.
Moustachium Team Fortress 2 Yellow metal bars given to people who gained achievements in the game SpaceChem. It can be used to craft items such as fishcake or a SpaceChem pin.
Nanite I Expect You To Die Yellow liquid with atomic number 13 and symbol Nn; makes a compound that explodes when exposed to air when mixed with Galine, and an antivirus when mixed with Regalite and Sanite. The real element 13 is aluminium.
Naquadah Stargate First depicted (but not named) as a
staff weapons, and heavy liquid naquadah is used to power Goa'uld AG-3 weapon satellites.[49] Naquadah can also be used to create weapons of mass destruction.[50]
Naquadria Stargate This heavy, unstable isotope of naqahdah is 100 times more powerful, highly
radioactive, and does not occur in nature. A very large artificial vein was discovered and mined on Kelowna for use in weapons of mass destruction. It was also used by Stargate Command to power the hyperspace generators on the prototype X-302[51] and X-303 spacecraft.[52]
Netheranium Marvel Comics Psycho-sensitive metal from Satan's extradimensional plane in the Son of Satan comics originated by Roy Thomas (writer) and Gary Friedrich (artist). Daimon Hellstrom's trident is made of this metal, which channels magical energy and gives him the power to fly and shoot soulfire. Netheranium also has the power to harm Satan himself.

In ancient

Carter Hall and Shiera Saunders, the original Hawkman and Hawkgirl. As Hawkman and Hawkgirl, they wear Nth metal belts, made with the help of the Thanagarian Paran Katar
, father of Katar Hol, when he is visiting Earth.

Many years later, Carter and Shiera's son,

Infinity Inc.
The suit gave him protection from attacks, let him lift great weights, and allowed him to fly and project solar energy blasts.

The current Hawkman and Hawkgirl continue to wear Nth metal.

Much later in the DC timeline, members of the

Legion of Super Heroes
wear "flight rings" made of an alloy of Nth metal called valorium.

The mercenary Deathstroke wears armor made of Nth metal.

Octiron Discworld A strange, iridescent metal; highly valued. Radiates dangerous amounts of raw enchantment and is so unstable it can only exist in a universe saturated with raw magic.[57]
Orichalcum Mythology of Atlantis Pink or red metal mined in Atlantis; also called mountain copper.
Maplestory it is a fuchsia metal used to craft armors and items. In Guild Wars 2, Orichalcum appears as an amber-colored metal used in crafting various things. In Shadowrun, orichalcum is a magical alloy of gold, silver, mercury, and copper. Also named "Orichalcon" in some games. Orichalcum is depicted as a pink metal in Terraria
and is used to make weapons, armor, and different walls and blocks. It also appears in Harvest Moon as a resource in multiple entries in the series.

Also mentioned in the "Biggles" story "The Adventure of the Oxidized Grotto" from Biggles - Charter Pilot (1943).

Is used to power and augment much of Earth's technology and is the game's main plot device; one team has to steal large amount of crates containing radianite, while the other team has to defend objectives to keep the opposing team from stealing the crates. It was initially known to be a clean, safe source of energy and something that could inflict supernatural abilities upon certain people who come into contact with it. Known as Radiants, they made up only a relatively small section of the global population and eventually became an accepted part of society. After a disaster in Venice, it is revealed that radianite had more destructive potential, leaving the world questioning how safe radianite actually was.
Radium X The Invisible Ray Highly radioactive extraterrestrial element discovered by Dr. Janos Rukh. He uses it to create a death beam projector which uses the incredible power of Radium X for a destructive weapon of mass terror. After developing a filter to curb its destructiveness, Rukh also uses it to restore sight to his blind mother with the Radium X projector. According to legend, this scene inspired John H. Lawrence to use radiation on his mother, who had been diagnosed with inoperable uterine cancer.[65]

Vibranium Marvel Comics Fictional metal; first appears in
Black Panther and his native homeland of Wakanda (a small, fictional African country).[87] It exists in two forms: one of them, the Wakandan variety, is native only to Wakanda.[88] This isotope can absorb all vibrations in the vicinity as well as kinetic energy directed at it.[89] The energy absorbed is stored within the bonds between the molecules that make up the substance. Therefore, the more energy vibranium absorbs, the tougher it becomes. This type of vibranium is a powerful mutagen.[90]
The Antarctic variety, better known as Anti-Metal, is an isotope native to the Savage Land, producing vibrations of a specific wavelength that break down the molecular bonds in other metals.

Fictional isotopes of real elements

Name Isotope of Source Uses Reality
80Ir Iridium Riptide According to the book, one second of direct exposure is equivalent to a lethal dose, with a reading of 3217.89
Rads/hr from 15 metres away. The blade of St. Michael's sword was forged from it.[97]
 80Ir does not exist; the lightest known isotope is 164Ir.
186Pu Plutonium The Gods Themselves Isotope of plutonium; too unstable to exist in our world, but exists naturally in fictional parallel universes whose strong nuclear force is stronger. This is used as a source of energy where turned into 186W, releasing electrons in the process.[citation needed] Lightest known isotope of plutonium: 228Pu.
Quantium any element, but most commonly potassium Babylon 5 Rare and expensive; used in jumpgates; forms when ordinary matter is subject to the stresses of a supernova, pushing some of its electron pair-bonds into hyperspace. The most commonly found form derives from 40K, giving quantium-40. The name was coined by David Strauss in response to a request from the show's creator.[98] 40K is a natural isotope, used to date rocks. But the method of getting quantium as described has not been shown in real life.
61Pm Promethium DC Comics Artificial element in the
Steve Dayton, theorized the potential applications for Promethium, both for good and ill, were limitless.[99]

Promethium is a metal alloy with two quite different isotopes, "depleted" and "volatile". Promethium's properties, key among which is that it's virtually indestructible with self restorative properties; make it highly coveted by various public and clandestine interests. The mercenary

Roy Harper
's body armor were made of the depleted variety.

Dayton believed Promethium alloys could make most anything coated in them impervious to destruction or abrasion. Even theorizing that it could impart its matter regenerative abilities to organic anatomy down the line of its testing.

Depleted promethium The most common isotope of promethium is the inert element that is easier to sell and managed on a grander scale. By itself it is extremely durable,

Ronnie Raymond once commented even Superman couldn't break it even with his strength.[101]
When Depleted Promethium is alloyed with other dense metals such as Kevlar or molybdenum-steel, it forms a near-invulnerable metal polymer.

The supervillain Prometheus got his powers after being dunked in a solution of titanium/vanadium alloy infused with promethium while working at Kord Industries as a foreman in its smelting plant. Retaining a metallic epidermal layer with the ability to heat up his body by several kelvin able to burn at a touch.[102]

Volatile promethium The rarest form of Promethium is its radioisotope, able to absorb and generate its own energy in near limitless amounts. Useful as a self-sustaining power source for many gadgets and facilities when properly used. The only drawback: "volatile Promethium" has dangerous mutagenic properties which can either be used to mutate living beings into hideous monstrosities or trigger the latent metagene resting within the DNA of others.

The latter is proven when due to Deathstroke the Terminator's use of promethium forged weaponry and equipment; i.e. his armor, sword and possibly his gun staff made of volatile promethium, which he can use without worry due to his healing factor; had triggered latent superpower abilities in his children

The Hybrid, as each of them got their powers from infusions of the irradiated material.[104]

 Promethium has no stable isotopes and is very rare in Earth's crust.

Pym Particles Marvel Originally discovered and isolated by Dr
Henry Pym, the Pym Particles are rare subatomic particles which can alter the size and mass of objects and living beings. Originally, it was believed that the particles could only decrease & increase the size and mass of organic or inorganic matter, though after years of work by Dr Henry Pym and various others however, it could also modify the conditioning of living beings and objects. Operating on a string of Axis' that govern strength, density & height, making it the sources of a good chunk of many superhuman being's powers; enabling a users capacity for gaining physical ability on par with the likes of Blue Marvel, The Sentry and Wonder Man.[106]
Reson Discworld The constitute particle of the Thaum, akin to the real-life quark. Its name literally means "thing-ies". It comes in 5 "flavors" or types: Up, Down, Sideways, Sex-Appeal and Peppermint.[107]
Tachyon Many examples; see Tachyons in fiction A tachyon is anything that travels faster than light. In many fictional settings it is taken that this involves time travel and they are invoked as an integral part of, or even shorthand for, time travel devices.
Thaum Discworld The basic unit of magical strength; the amount of magic needed to create one small white pigeon or three normal-sized billiard balls. The Thaum has been shown to be made up of Resons in the Unseen University's High Energy Magic Building.[108]

(2004) "The Space Shuttle Decision: NASA's Search for a Reusable Space Vehicle" The NASA History Series, sp-4221 Chapter 8, discussing Lockheed Martin's decision to specify silica tiles for thermal protection during reentry, states that a design using non-mass-producible materials "had no more intrinsic credibility than one that proposed to use the miracle metals Unobtanium and Wishalloy."

J'avouerai, entre nous, que, si j'utilise ce corps, c'est un peu pour la galerie. Ce n'est pas qu'il soit nuisible, mais la terre rayonne assez d'énergie pour qu'il soit superflu de lui en ajouter. C'est un grain de sel dans la mer. Toutefois, une légère mise en scène ne messied pas, à mon sens, dans une expérience de cette nature.»
  93. ^ Jules Verne; Michel Verne (1909). The Chase of the Golden Meteor. Grant Richards. p. 125. „This, gentlemen." he said, „is Xirdalium, a body a hundred times more radio-active than radium. I am willing to own you that, if I utilize this body, it is more for show. Not that it is deleterious; but the earth radiates enough energy for me to do without adding more. It is a grain of salt thrown into the sea. Still, a little display is not unbecoming, methinks, in an experiment of this nature."
