Australian Federal and State Governments and the private sector have made substantial investments in magnesium metal and alloys in the past 10 years in order to establish a magnesium industry that can bring Australia the wealth that has been generated by the iron and aluminium industries. One of the key steps to achieve this goal is to continuously and substantially increase the international demand for the magnesium metal which is currently only 1/1700 that of iron and 1/50 that of aluminium. This project has the potential to increase the international magnesium market and to provide a platform for overseas commercialisation of Australian technologies.
