"Black Panther provides some fairly major clues that that the Soul Stone is in Wakanda. In the prologue, we’re told that a meteor hit Africa, and we can see that the meteor is glowing from the inside. We’re also told that the meteor, which was made of Vibranium, affected the plant and animal life, something we later see with the “heart-shaped herb” that can give a person superhuman strength and agility. Additionally, when people drink it, they’re given visions of the “ancestral plane”, which looks a lot like “a gateway to an idyllic pocket universe.” We’ve also seen in the Infinity War trailer that there’s a huge battle set to take place on the outskirts of Wakanda. It stands to reason that the Soul Stone was inside the meteor, and it’s currently buried beneath Wakanda. For his part, director Ryan Coogler says he didn’t include an Infinity Stone because he wanted to keep the focus on the Vibranium, but it appears there are enough clues that the two are connected–the Vibranium was infused with the power of the Soul Stone."
