[[Image:CustodesArmor.jpg|thumb|right|220px|Custodes Auramite Armour{{Fn|4}}]]
'''{{PAGENAME}}''' is a powerful nigh-impenetrable{{Fn|6}} material used in the construction of [[Adeptus Custodes]] [[Power Armour]]{{Fn|1}} that is said to be similar to the [[Ceramite]] used by [[Space Marine]]s,.{{Fn|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.{{Fn|3}}
