A METHOD OF PREPARING A MAGNESIA SPINEL WHICH COMPRISES PREPARING A HOMOGENEOUS ADMIXTURE CONSISTING ESSENTIALLY OF A FINELY-DIVIDED ALUMIN-CONTRIBUTING COMPONENT AND A FINELY-DIVIDED MAGNESIA-CONTRIBUTING COMPONENT, SAID ALUMINA-CONTRIBUTING COMPONENT AND SAID MAGNESIA-CONTRIBUTING COMPONENT BEING PRESENT IN SAID ADMIXTURE IN SUBSTANTIALLY STOICHIOMETRIC AMOUNTS, SAID ALUMINA-CONTRIBUTING COMPONENT BEING SELECTED FROM THE GROUP CONSISTING OF ALUMINA HYDRATE, LIGHTLY CALCINED ALUMINA AND ALPHA-ALUMINA, AND SAID MAGNESIA-CONTRIBUTING COMPONENT BEING SELECTED FROM THE GROUP CONSISTING OF MAGNESIUM HYDROXIDE, MAGNESIUM CARBONATE, BASIC MAGNESIUM CARBONATE AND LIGHTLY CALCINED MAGNESIUM OXIDE, SAID ADMIXTURE ADDITIONALLY CONTAINING A MINOR AMOUNT OF A FLUORINE-CONTAINING MATERIAL IN THE RANGE 0.2-4.0% BYWEIGHT, OXIDE BASIS, WHEN SAID ALUMINA-CONTRIBUTING COMPONENT IS SUBSTANTIALLY FREE OF ALPHA-ALUMINA, CALCINING SAID ADMIXTURE AT A TEMPERATURE IN THE RANGE FROM ABOUT 850*C. TO ABOUT 1250*C. AND RECOVERING THE RESULTING CALCINED REACTION PRODUCT CONSISTING CHIEFLY OF MAGNESIA SPINEL, SAID FLUORINE-CONTAINING MATERIAL BEING CAPABLE OF LIBERATING HYDROGEN FLUORIDE DURING THE CALCINING OPERATION.
