A method of producing the desired pure metal M or pure metal alloy M x N y , which is made of an anode made of graphite or a composite of metal oxide and carbon of the desired metal. Electrolysis of the molten salt electrolyte of an alkali metal halide or alkaline earth metal halide AX or AX 2 to release alkali metal or alkaline earth metal A at the cathode, and at the anode Nascent chlorine gas is released at this time, thereby producing the desired metal halide MX n and / or NX n , and the metal halide MX with the alkali metal or alkaline earth metal A obtained at the cathode. n and / or NX n, in either separately or together, and allowed to reduced metal heat the metal M or metal alloy M x n y has an object in the form of particles And characterized in that the elephants.
