Basic physics lesson: a) Vibranium is an alien element that absorbs energy, so that Cap can get shot by an artillery shell without getting hurt. Therefore, when Cap throws his shield at something, all that kinetic energy should be absorbed by the vibranium, and the shield should drop like a rock and land without bouncing.
Okkaaaayyy... :-)

Unless b) the writer has forgotten "a".
Well in the comics it's a mix of Vibranium and Adamantium, but since X-men is owned by Fox not Disney they had to leave that out of the movies.
