The above comments are accurate. It machines very much like aluminum - at least the common alloys do.

D class extinguishers are for metals, K class are for grease fires.
Definitely either use a D-class or dont use one at all. Water, CO2, and in some cases, even sand can make magnesium fires worse, not 100% sure, but I dont see why metal fires would be so different.
