Adding multiple solute elements could create fracture origin through formation of intermetallic compound due to bonding of added elements. While maintaining microstructure for activating non-basal dislocation movement, additive elements not to create fracture origin, but to promote grain boundary sliding are preferably found from among inexpensive and versatile elements. Provided is Mg-based wrought alloy material including two or more among group consisting of Mn, Zr, Bi, and Sn; and Mg and unavoidable constituents, having excellent room-temperature ductility and characterized by having finer crystal grain size in Mg parent phase during room-temperature deformation and in that mean grain size in matrix thereof is 20 μm or smaller; rate of (σ.sub.max−σ.sub.bk)/σ.sub.max (maximum load stress (σ.sub.max), breaking stress (σ.sub.bk)) in stress-strain curve obtained by tension-compression test of the wrought material is 0.2 or higher; and resistance against breakage shows 200 kJ or higher.
