In this paper is presented the structure of the cast magnesium alloys as cast state. For investigations samples in shape of 250x150x25 mm plates were used. The structure has been study in the light microscope, scanning electron microscope equipped with an electron back scattering facility. The effects of the addition of Al on the microstructure were also studied. In the analysed alloys a structure of [alpha] solid solution and fragile phase [beta] (Mg17Al12) occurred mainly on grain borders as well as eutectic and phase with Mn, Fe and Si. Investigation is carried out for the reason of chemical composition influence and precipitation processes influence to the structure of the magnesium cast alloys with different chemical composition.
