I have completed my new set of reactions to create ever more pure (and powerful) forms of adamantine.

so, here's the story:
"dwarves have been working with precious stones and minerals for longer than history can remember. But,over time, one stone has come to be valued above all the rest, adamantine. The dwarves have devoted entire cults and fortresses to unearthing new possibilities for this most precious of precious metals, and, at long last, they have perfected their art. With a new plant discovered to grow high above ground near the mouthes of volcanoes the dwarves have found an extract which imbues the adamantine with unnatural power. In the first stage they combine the adamantine with one diamond of every variety in a high heat only achievable with a 100% reactor. This process causes the molecules in the adamantine to form such that each adamantine molecule is surrounded by 1 molecule of each of the 6 diamond types, thus protecting the adamantine from wear from most physical forces and allowing it to retain its protective properties.
In the second stage of its purification, the adamantine is too volitile to be handled by normal means. Fortunately it has a peculiar attractive property for giant cave spider silk and by simply coating the silk with crystal glass, to protect it from the reaction heat, the dwarves are able to creat a silk lattice which the adamantine can form to.
In the next tier the heat required is such that not even the glass can withstand. So the dwarves pump in ash from burnt trees to coax the adamantine into shape.
And finally, the adamantine so pure that its quantum particles are in uncontrollable dissaray, dwarven science can no longer explain the physics at work and the process is turned over to a high priest of armok to execute a ritual of death in the hopes that armok himself will come to bless the metal"
So, since I am somewhat new to modding, any tips? It works fine but I'm wondering if there are any more efficient ways of doing what I did.
