Abstract: The invention relates to a process for conditioning material for pyrometallurgical conversion to magnesium, the process comprising carrying out de-sulfation of the material in a slurry to reduce sulfur content of the material; and carrying out de-ferration of the de-sulfated material in a slurry to reduce iron content of the material to produce a conditioned material suitable for pyrometallurgical conversion to magnesium.
