It is an object of the present invention to provide a crystallized glass which has various properties required for employing the substrate for information recording medium of the next generation, and also has significantly low specific gravity; and a crystallized glass substrate for information recording medium. A crystallized glass containing, as a crystal phase, one or more selected from RAl2O4 and R2TiO4 (wherein R is one or more selected from Mg and Fe), the crystallized glass comprising the components of SiO2 of 50% to 70%, Al2O3 of 10% to 26%, TiO2 of 1 to 15%, MgO of 2.5% to 25%, FeO of 0% to 8%, and ZnO of 0% to less than 2%, expressed in terms of mass percentage on an oxide basis, wherein the value of (Al2O3+MgO)/SiO2 is 0.30 or more and 0.65 or less, and a specific gravity is less than 2.63. |
