Magnesium-substituted lithium ferrite of different composition (Li0.5Fe2.5−xMgxO4−δ) were prepared for x = 0.0–1.0 by conventional ceramic technique. The crystal structure characterization and morphology were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Initial permeability and quality factor were measured in the frequency range of 1 kHz to 100 MHz. The permeability decreased gradually from μ (f = 10 MHz) = 34.0 for Li0.5Fe2.5O4 to μ (f = 10 MHz) = 11.5 for Li0.5Fe1.5Mg1.0O4. Electrical conductivity measurements were carried in the range of 250–700 °C in air. The maximum electrical conductivity, σ700 °C = 0.1274 S/cm has been found to be for Li0.5Fe2.5O4 specimen. With increasing Mg-substituted content, the decreased in the electrical conductivity.
