New methods of producing small quantities of exotic alloys from immiscible metals (and elements in general) are described with two examples: An alloy of aluminium with silver and one of aluminium with tungsten. There is no limit to the number of components that can form special alloys by this method and their applications can be foreseen to be quite useful in the future.
