In order to obtain an alloy with a specific set of magnetic properties, the dominant influences of chemical component and thermal treatment selection need to be satisfied. In this paper, the results of investigations into the microstructure and magnetic properties of the following alloys are presented: amorphous Fe₈₂Zr₇Nb₂Cu₁B₈ and crystalline Fe₈₂Zr₆Y₁Nb₂Cu₁B₈. The structure and microstructure were examined using the Mössbauer spectroscopy and X-ray diffractometry. The Fe₈₂Zr₇Nb₂Cu₁B₈alloy was found to be fully amorphous in the as-quenched state and the transmission Mössbauer spectrum for this alloy is typical of that for weak ferromagnets, with an average hyperfine field of 9.86(2) T. The shape of this spectrum was found to have changed noticeably in the case of the Fe₈₂Zr₆Y₁Nb₂Cu₁B₈ alloy. This change was attributed to the presence of the crystalline phase bcc-Fe.
