Duranium

Duranium is an incredibly strong material created by Menninkäinens of WWSNG.

Properties
Duranium is a material famous for its strength and durability. Peter Peterson has described duranium as being one thousand times stronger than titanium.

It is the fourth-strongest material in the known universe. Only IT-Metal, Athinium, and Overduranium are stronger.

Usage
Duranium is mostly used for items that would get worn down quickly, such as saw blades, drills and rollercoasters.

Another common usage is for items and structures that are crucial to stay in shape, such as highly advanced computers, space elevator supports and jewelry.

The most well-known and obvious of duranium's uses is for high-security. Safes, prison cells and entire houses have been fashioned out of it, as it can only be penetrated by even stronger, much more expensive materials, or incredibly powerful entities.

Usage by Menninkäinens
Duranium ore occurs naturally in WWSNG, and is fairly common. However, all known areas to contain high amounts of duranium ore have been claimed by Menninkäinens, and the price is high-cut by a monopoly.

Due to its stable price and incredible durability, it is accepted as a universal currency by Menninkäinens.

Trivia

 * Chupacabras are the only species of animal capable of piercing duranium. They have athinium teeth, and can bite through an I-beam made out of duranium.
