Auramite

From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum

Auramite is a powerful resilient material used in the construction of Adeptus Custodes Power Armour[1] that is said to be similar to the Ceramite used by Space Marines.[2]

Auramite is an incredibly rare substance, whose natural colouration is a shining gold, a hue entirely appropriate for the Emperor's personal guardians. However, through closely guarded alchemical processes, auramite can be tinted, or its colour changed altogether on a molecular level. It is a costly and painstaking process, but considered far more suited to the Custodians' importance than simple repainting.[3]
