I am wondering how much Adamantine costs. We know how much it costs for weapons, ammo and armour, as presented in that nice little chart. What the chart lacks is something the Mithral section covers nicely: Other Items.
Specifically, how would you price out a Portable Ram with an Adamantine head?
If you feel like being a super-star, what formula would you use? I can't see any correlation between the Mithral price progression and Adamantine's.
As an odd aside, strictly speaking - You can't have an Adamantine shield.

Well if you think light armor = 1, medium armor = 2, and heavy armor = 3 then the cost of an adamantine armor is 5000 * armor variable and mithril armor is armor variable squared. I think the reason there is no adamantine shield is to avoid the easy access to a damage resistance. Since mithril items are per pound half as much as light armor, I would go the same for adamantine items.
You can melt down a suit of Elven Chain (5,150gp) into 20 mithril daggers which are worth 501gp a pop, nearly doubling the orignal value.

Except after you melt it down, you then have to re-work the mithral.
After labour i don't think you'd have much of a profit margin unfortunately.
