So, it's absolutely fine that Killmonger is an army veteran who went to MIT, became a genius and a killing machine and slowly worked on a plan to get his vengeance on Wakanda, but at what point did he manage to become an expert in identifying Vibranium?

He's never come into contact with the material - other than perhaps the small amount his father had stashed in the apartment, and that wasn't in processed form - and the rest of the world knows nothing about the material. Are we supposed to believe his father taught him the finer points of identifying the metal from a distance while it's disguised as something else before he was killed?

That's some serious foresight right there.
