LiMg₂Au is an intermetallic compound combining lithium, magnesium, and gold—a ternary alloy that falls into the category of lightweight metallic systems with precious metal additions. This is primarily a research-phase material studied for its potential in advanced applications where the combination of low density (via Li and Mg) and gold's chemical stability or electronic properties could offer distinct advantages over conventional alloys. The material represents exploration of multi-principal-element systems for niche applications requiring unusual property combinations, though industrial production and deployment remain limited.
