The use of magnesium as structural engineering material has been becoming more widespread. It promises an important future as a main structural material especially in fields such as aviation and automotive because of its higher mechanical properties and lower weight. In this study, the microstructure of extruded AZ31 type material was investigated. The change of grain size was examined by using optical microscope and SEM microscope and EDX data mapping were obtained. The change in the microstructure was investigated. It was observed that grain size was reduced after extrusion and the alloy elements’ distribution was homogeneous.
