It is not copyright infringement. This is just a common metal used in different games. Newbscape (Runescape) uses it, Eq doesn't that much but they dap it in, MMORPG's, and even X-Men. Just another made up metal (possibly).

I'm pretty sure there is a reference to "adamantine chains" in the Inferno. Or whatever the italian is. Adamant is from a greek word that means diamond or extremely tough metal. Turn it into something that fits modern naming of metals and you get adamantium. I don't think obvious modernizing of words can be covered by copyright.
Wolverine's (Marvels X-Men) claws were also reffered to as Adamantium,his skeleton was also encased in this alloy.But Wolverine was Canadian,not Italian.

Given this bit of info, maybe the stats should be raised a bit, and harder than hell to get. I'm probably going into it just a bit too much, but I was raised on X-men. Best cartoon in the world, in my opinion.
Copyright Infringment? Adamantium (Admantium in some other games) is a commonly used form of metal in MMORPGS. The Realm used Admantium, EQ has Adamantium, and I am sure some other one has it as well. So, I doubt this would be Copyright Infringment.

America. Adamantium is actually an alloy of vibranium a rare metal, according to Marvel comics history, that was found in Anarctica and no longer exists. Capt. America's shield is made of vibranium which has been proven to be harder and stronger than Wolverine's claws/skeleton. The original Avengers headquarters' structure was even comprised of an adamantium/vibranium combination devised by Tony Stark. (Hence why you don't see their base being obliterated like some other superhero bases such as Muir Island, Dr. Strange's home, Four Freedoms Plaza etc.)

In Marvel Comicdom, adamantium is a man-made alloy (used in Wolverine's skeleton, among other things) and vibranium is a natural metal occuring in Antarctica (the Savage Land) and Wakanda (the kingdom of T'Challa, the Black Panther). The Wakandan kind of vibranium is the one that is referred to most often, since it has a bunch of sound-related properties to it, and that is what is used in Captain America's shield, along with adamantium. Cap's shield is a special vibranium-adamantium alloy that has proven to be stronger than anything else known to (fictional Marvel) humankind. Antarctic or Savage Land vibranium actually eats all metal it comes into contact with, so it's rarely used for anything.
