Adamant is a basic alloy used to create the [assembler](@oritech:assembler_block), [steam engine](@oritech:steam_engine_block),
machine cores, and various components and tools.

It is very hard but brittle, and it is partly see-through,
which makes it useful for optical devices and similar parts.

Adamant can be created in a crafting grid:

<CraftingRecipe
    slots={[
        'oritech:nickel_ingot',
        'oritech:nickel_ingot',
        '',
        'diamond',
        'diamond',
        '',
        '',
        '',
        ''
    ]}
    result="oritech:adamant_ingot"
    count={1}
/>

The [foundry](@oritech:foundry_block) can produce more adamant with fewer diamonds and nickel.
