Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to a process for refining crude magnesium, and, in particular, the magnesium obtained by reducing the magnesium ore using iron-silicon. The process consists in treating the liquid magnesium with a metallic sulphide such as iron monosulphide, iron bisulphide or molybdenum bisulphide. The sulphides are contacted with the metallic bath which is agitated to promote the liquid-solid reactions and the formation of insoluble products which precipitate. This contacting is followed by decantation of the insoluble products and their separation from the refined magnesium. The process permits a significant reduction in the contents of calcium and silicon.
