Al-rich Mg-Al spinel single crystals were grown by Verneuil process using oxygen and hydrogen flame. Spinel single crystals were grown in chemical compositions from MgO : Al2O3 mole ratio 1 : 1 to 1 : 3. Mole ratio 1 : 1 was hard to be grown and mole ratio 1 : 2.5 and 1 : 3 were grown well. Selecting well-grown mole ratio 1 : 3, seeds were prepared having [100], [110] and [111] orientation respectively. Growth rate were highest in [100] orientation and lowest in [111] orientation.
