Abstract

A high-purity high-melting metal target or high-purity high-melting metal silicide target for LSI electrodes having an alkali metal content of not more than 100 ppb and a radioactive element content of not more than 10 ppb is provided by a wet purification process followed by a series of dry processings. Preferably the high-melting metal is molybdenum, tungsten, titanium, niobium or tantalum. More preferably, the high-melting metal is molybdenum.
