Wikipedia article

Divine metals are special, procedurally generated metals that can be found in vaults. Divine metals are used as material for items, weapons and armor used by angels, who ruthlessly protect the vault's priceless treasures.

Traits

Divine metals appear to have identical material properties and list of items craftable from them; the only difference between them are the name and deity association. All divine metals have high yield values of 1000000 and fracture values of 2000000, and perfect strain-at-yield values of 0. They are extremely light, at only a solid density of 1000, and have a superior max edge of 12000. They are granted spheres matching the associated deity that has created the metal (and the guardians who wield it), and a descriptive name with the formula of "(adjective) metal" — examples of such are "multicoloured metal", "pale metal", and "twisting metal".

Overall, their material properties are much better than the corresponding values of steel and mostly worse to those of adamantine. They are terrifyingly potent when used for edged weapons, due to their ultra-sharpness, but despite their light weight, even blunt weapons tend to be highly effective. Any adventurer that is godly (or reckless) enough to raid a vault is highly advised that he get proper equipment before engaging the divine creatures within. The easiest way to do so is with the help of your own dwarf fortress — once you obtain access to adamantine and have made some equipment out of it, retire or abandon your fort, then let your adventurer visit that fort. Bear in mind that your adventurer needs to be a dwarf or elf to equip this adamantine armour Be sure the armor is fitted to your race, you can do this in details tab at a forge.

Weapons and armour made of divine metals may be tested in the Arena.
