      I mean in the comics it's just a mixed alloy of vibranium and iron so like in theory you should already be able to make it if you're in the MCU

      Adamantium is not, in fact, made from vibranium (this is a common misconception) Captain America's shield in the comics is a completely unique alloy made from vibranium and ordinary steel, and as a result is truly completely indestructible and has never been duplicated

      Dr. Myron McLain made the shield by accident in the lab after falling asleep in the lab, and was unable to duplicate the formula because it used up his only sample of vibranium

      McLain then went on to try to duplicate the shield's properties *without* the use of vibranium as his life's great work Adamantium is the result of this research (and the one thing we know about its secret formula is it *doesn't* contain vibranium)

      Oh shit, I didn't know that That actually makes the entire notion of adamantium a lot cooler than I thought, even if only in a dorky metallurgic sense

      It's also a son of a fuck to forge with. Getting it smelted is a motherfucker, and once you get it liquid you have a really limited window to make something.

      Right In the comics, the origin story of the shield is that Dr. McLain didn't realize the experiment he was doing would leave the alloying process irreversible and the vibranium in it unrecoverable So he was just casting it in a mold used for tank hatches

      By chance, making a completely indestructible rounded disc was not a huge waste of a precious resource, because it fit Steve Rogers' athletic abilities pretty well, and thus Captain America's shield was born

      Whatever the later adamantium process he discovered was, it's the same way -- as a game balancing feature, its versatility is harshly limited by making it being a one-shot irreversible process

      Hence Wolverine, for the most part, assumes he can't ever get the adamantium off his bones even if he wanted to (Until Magneto comes along)

      (Whatever the shield is made of, it's apparently no longer even a "metal" for the purposes of Magneto's powers and is immune to him fucking with it The Molecule Man is capable of destroying it because he's better than Magneto and can control all matter at the particle level)

          (And when Molecule Man puts the shield back together he says its structure is "very strange" and "hard to describe")
