A method of producing a composite material comprising: supplying a metal compound (MC) of a product metal (M) and a reductant (R) capable of reducing the metal compound (MC) of the product metal (MP) to a reactor; forming a composite material comprising a matrix of oxidised reductant (R) of the reductant (R), the product metal (M) dispersed in the matrix of oxidised reductant (R), and at least one of (i) one or more metal compounds (MC) of the metal compound (MC) in one or more oxidation states and (ii) the reductant (R); and recovering the composite material from the reactor, wherein the metal compound (MC) of the product metal (M) is fed to the reactor such that it is in excess relative to the reductant (R). 1. A composite material comprising:{'sub': '0', 'a matrix of oxidised reductant (R);'}{'sub': P', '0, 'a product metal (M) dispersed in said matrix of oxidised reductant (R); and'}{'sub': P', 'R', 'P, 'at least one of (i) one or more metal compounds (MC) of said product metal (M) in one or more oxidation states, and (ii) a reductant (R).'}2. A composite material according to claim 1 , wherein said composite material comprises up to 20 wt % of said reductant (R).3. A composite material according to claim 1 , wherein said product metal (M) is selected from the group consisting of titanium claim 1 , aluminium claim 1 , vanadium claim 1 , chromium claim 1 , niobium claim 1 , molybdenum claim 1 , zirconium claim 1 , silicon claim 1 , boron claim 1 , tin claim 1 , hafnium claim 1 , yttrium claim 1 , iron claim 1 , copper claim 1 , nickel claim 1 , bismuth claim 1 , manganese claim 1 , palladium claim 1 , tungsten claim 1 , cadmium claim 1 , zinc claim 1 , silver claim 1 , cobalt claim 1 , tantalum claim 1 , scandium claim 1 , ruthenium and the rare earths or a combination of any two or more thereof.4. A composite material according to claim 3 , wherein said product metal (M) comprises at least two of titanium claim 3 , aluminium and vanadium.5. A composite material ...
