An electrolytic reduction cell for metal production includes an anode structure (6) and a cathode (2) located beneath the anode. The upper surface of the cathode includes an aggregate of particles having a particle size distribution and particle shapes such that, in use of the cell, liquid metal penetrates at least part way into the aggregate to form a slurry (3) of liquid metal and particles. The slurry has a high viscosity and remains relatively immobile during operation of the cell. Preferably, the slurry is a plastic fluid that has a yield stress higher than the shear stresses to which it is exposed in the cell.
