Why does the mass of a substance, like mithril in Middle-earth, not change whether it's found at the center of the Earth or on the Moon?

The mass of a substance, like mithril, remains the same regardless of its location, whether at the center of the Earth or on the Moon. 


Extension: Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object and does not change with location. However, weight, which is the force exerted by gravity on that mass, does change depending on where you are. On the Moon, gravity is weaker than on Earth, so an object weighs less there, but its mass stays constant.
