The production of titanium, zirconium, hafnium, thorium, vanadium, niobium, tantalum, chromium, molybdenum, and tungsten of high purity directly from metal halides is described. It has been discovered that the production, particularly of titanium and zirconiunn metals, may be considerably improved not only by confining the reduced metal balide to the immediate vicinity of the cathode but by retaining the refractory metal deposit in toto on tae cathode. Substantially all of the refractory metal is recovered as a highly ductile commercially acceptable product. The metal halide is introduced into the electrolyte through a feed pipe having a (cathodic) basket attached thereto submerged in the electrolyte. (Add. to: 734,094). (auth)
