The Fall of the Adamantium City took place in 654.M37.[1]

After the cessation of communications from the governor of the city of Zalos, the Adamantium City, suspicion was further raised by a refusal to pay the Imperial Tithe. Local forces based in the sub-sector were sent to investigate, only to be denied access and they discovered that the Adamantium City has been fortified.[1]

Imperial Fists deployed from Battle Barges and laid siege to the city. Assault Centurion Squads were used to breach the citadel’s walls, whereupon the populace was found to have fallen to Chaos. Chaos Space Marines were discovered operating within the city, inciting the Cultists that swarmed around them. After a bloody battle, the Traitors were utterly destroyed, the horn-headed and pockmarked heretics all executed, but the Adamantium City was reduced to ruins.[1]
