Links have been updated to the 1.91 version of the EuCal. User Guide (updated also) and the EuCal can be read and used by anyone, the link to the 2018 CM article is behind a paywall but everyone can access 3 free articles a month so it's available that way to people without a subscription. All links in the first post in this thread.

Hello, @BobMagnuson thank you for the nice software.

Question, any idea where would I be able to find a list of other eutectic systems? I assume there are systems that incorporate say sodium, magnesium, silica and alumina? That potentially would have a lower melting point than a system with only magnesium, silica and alumina? 

It is one of those cases where it is hard to know what to look for, google turns up mostly unrelated papers behind paywalls.

The most authoritative resource is probably ACerS-NIST Phase Equilibria Diagrams.  The current version is called PHASE 5.0, I think.  The big problem is that it is WAY expensive...well over $1000 for a single user.   I have never had access to the full version.  It's possible some university libraries might have it.  In the past, they offered a demo version that I found quite helpful.  I don't know if that is still available.  As you can see, tracking down reliable information on ceramic eutectics is not at all easy.  Good luck!

Yes, I did some more digging and found the ACerS-NIST Phase Equilibria Diagrams. The demo version have some data but most of the time it makes me wonder what I am looking at, lol. I will dig some more I suppose.
