Magnesium is a metal. So it should be called as heavy. The correct term is more dense or denser than most other nonmetal elements. Still heavy or light is a relative term. You have to compare with other substance.

How do you extract titanium from its wore?
The ore rutile (impure titanium (IV) oxide) is heated with chlorine and coke at a temperature of about 900°C. Then the Titanium chloride is reduced using Magnesium and distilled to get rid of the Magnesium chloride (Magnesium atoms displaced titanium atoms). Then you get titanium.
Why does titanium more than steel?
i am doing homework and this is what i put: steel is extacted using a blast furnace which is quick and relatively cheap. however to extract titanium, magnesium is needed because it is more reactive. magnesium is extracted by electrolysis, which is expensive therefore it is not cheap to buy. you have to buy the magnesium to extract the titanium, which is why titanium is expensive hope this helped and you can copy it word for word i dont care :)
