Limult Magnesite Mining and Processing Factory in Nigeria
Magnesium is the lightest of all metals, being about two-thirds lighter than aluminum. Magnesium is non-toxic, non-magnetic, has high-impact strength and is resistant to denting. Magnesium is too reactive to occur in nature as an element, but its compounds are common.
Magnesium is used in super-strong, lightweight materials and alloys. For example, when infused with silicon carbide nanoparticles, it has extremely high specific strength.
Magnesium is one of the most abundant element in the Earth's crust. Elemental magnesium is a gray-white lightweight metal and occurs naturally only in combination with other elements. The metal can be produced artificially, but is highly reactive.
When exposed to the atmosphere it is coated in a thin layer of oxide that partly inhibits reactivity. Magnesium is used in super-strong, lightweight materials and alloys.
The largest single use for magnesium metal is in aluminum alloying, accounting for about 50% of the total magnesium metal consumption. The addition of magnesium to aluminum produces high-strength, corrosion-resistant alloys.
About 20% is used in castings and wrought products including machinery, tools and other consumer products such as parts for cars. Magnesium is also useful in removing sulfur in the production of iron and steel, and the production of titanium in the Kroll process.
