Alloys of a first group of metals containing at least one iron group metal and one or more easily oxidizable metals can be formed by forming an aqueous solution of the first group of metals, forming solids containing the metals from the solution, reducing the solids to a metallic powder, converting the metallic powder to metallic alloy spherical powders, agglomeration the spherical powder with one or more easily oxidizable metals in a non-oxidizing atmosphere, thereafter the agglomerates are subjected to a sufficient temperatures under non-oxidizing conditions to form an alloy.
