Abstract: Provided are a formed product of magnesium alloy excel-lent in impact resistance and a magnesium alloy sheet suitable for use as a material for the formed product. The formed product is produced by press--forming a magnesium alloy sheet containing 7 to 12mass% of Al, and in-cludes a flat portion which has not undergone drawing deformation. In the metal structure of a cross section prepared by cutting the formed product in the flat portion in the sheet thickness direction, the number of coarse parti-cles of an intermetallic compound (Mg17Al12) which have diameters of 5µm or larger and which are present in the surface region lying to a depth of 1/3 of the sheet thickness from the surface is 5 or smaller. The formed product has a structure wherein fine precipitates (d0) are dispersed with few coarse precipitates (d1). By virtue of dispersion strengthening yielded by the fine precipitates and solid-solution strengthening yielded by enough solid-solu-tioned Al, the formed product is less susceptible to getting dented even when an impact is applied to the press-formed product.
