The following exampmgfig five of alloys made in accordance with my ntion, it being understood that the full scope of my invention is not intended to be limited except as set forth the claims. Example Electrolytic manganese produced by methods known in the art and containing at least 99.9% manganese was reduced to a fine powder and heated with pure nickel and with pure redistilled molten magnesium at 900 degrees C. for several hours. The resulting alloy was chill cast and on analysis it showed a content of 93.9% magnesium. 2% nickel and 2.1% manganese. I have found it desirable to use a magnesia crucible to prevent contamination and to melt in an atmosphere of purified helium. The alloy was then heated to about 900 degrees F. and extruded as close to that temperature as possible. The mold was operated at about 450 degrees F. The'following table lists various of the properties of the extruded alloy:

\ Other specific examples of alloys which are within the scope of the present invention me,
for example, the following:
Magnesium Nickel Manganese Percent In general, the alloys of the present casehave particularly desirable properties in the extruded state. They may be subjected to various heat treatments as. for example, quick cooling from about 1200 degrees Fa followed by reheating to about 480 degrees F., wherebythey are hardened or other elements may be added iorcertain purposes with advantage.
The alloys-have utility for aircraft construction as, for example, pistons, cylinder heads for engines, and the like. Some of them, due to their electrical resistance characteristics may be used for electrical conductors. They are especially useful where high tensile strength at elevated temperatures is desired.
This application is a continuation-in-part of my prior application, Serial No. 326,173, filed March 27, 1940.
