Though a bare-handed punch is enough to cause a mortal to explode, they prefer to fight with enormous warhammers of adamantine.
The mineral may be readily recognized by its characteristic twinning, in conjunction with the adamantine lustre and high specific gravity.
There, his skeleton was bonded with the adamantine.
Vanadinite may be transparent, translucent or opaque, and its lustre can range from resinous to adamantine.
Tantite forms transparent microscopic colorless triclinic - pedial crystals with an adamantine luster.
Otavite crystallizes in the trigonal system and forms encrustations and small scalenohedral crystals that have a pearly to adamantine luster.
A generalization is that minerals with metallic or adamantine lustre tend to have higher specific gravities than those having a non-metallic to dull lustre.
Diamond's hardness also is visually evident (under the microscope or loupe) by its highly lustrous facets (described as "adamantine") which are perfectly flat, and its crisp, sharp facet edges.
