A process for the production of metal Me and/or an alloy containing metal Me from a complex metal halide AmMeXoby electrolysis in a cell comprising an anode, a liquid metal cathode comprising one or more metals M and a liquid electrolyte comprising a salt melt of one or more alkali metal or alkaline earth metal halides, which comprises introducing complex metal halide AmMeXo, in which A represents an alkali metal, Me represents a metal, X represents halogen and o represents the valency of Me minus m, into the liquid metal cathode and isolating Me and/or an alloy containing Me from the metal cathode material. |
