Titanium Metallurgy

The metallurgy of ores of titanium, titaniferous iron-ores (that is, iron-ores containing a notable amount of titanic acid, TiO2, say not less than 5 per cent., generally 10 to 20 per cent., and frequently more, up to 40 per cent, or thereabout), occur all over the world in immense quantity, “ in mountain masses,” constituting […]
Titanium Ore Processing and Beneficiation

To develop a flowsheet for separation of high grade titanium-rutile from ilmenite, that will meet market requirements. Rutile has a SG of 4.2, hardness 6.0 to 6.5 and is non-magnetic; while ilmenite has a SG of 4.5 to 5.0, hardness of 5.0 to 6.0, and is weakly magnetic. Both minerals are amenable to gravity concentration. Titanium, “the […]
