Mena Ngai
The Mena Ngai is a Vibranium mine located in Mount Bashenga in the north-west of Wakanda, in Golden Tribe lands.
The mine is situated over the impact site of a meteor, which was the source of Wakanda's vibranium deposits.
It is one of the most secret and heavily guarded of Wakanda's secrets, and non-Wakandans are forbidden from setting foot there. As well as its economic importance, the Vibranium deposits are considered sacred in the Wakandan Native Religion.
Until the arrival of the High Evolutionary, the Mena Ngai was the world's only known source of Vibranium. Due to restrictions on mining in Antartica, all legal Vibranium on the market still comes from the Mena Ngai, and is considered to be of higher quality than Savage Land Vibranium.
Much of the mining work is automated, with a system of maglev trains used for transporting the ore.
