WELCOME TO MINRITE Minrite produces heavy mineral sands products and concentrates, including Zircon, Rutile, Ilmenite, Garnet and Monazite. The company's in-house regulatory team also provides support to Group and third-party mining companies with prospecting and mining right applications, EIA/EMPs, water use licence applications, registrations with the …

To determine the mechanism of acid-leaching of ilmenite to ultimately forming rutile, we have carried out an experimental study of ilmenite alteration in autoclaves at 150°C in HCl solutions. The resulting products were studied by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, electron microprobe and Raman spectroscopy.

The successful industrial application is reported in Australia for the selective separation of ilmenite, rutile, zircon and monazite by means of electrostatic separation, …

Overall, the current method of manufacturing synthetic rutile is expensive and damaging to the earth. In contrast, IperionX, a metals technology company, is commercializing innovative titanium mineral-enrichment technologies that upgrade ilmenite minerals into a high-grade TiO 2 synthetic rutile product, with fewer carbon emissions …

Rutile and ilmenite are found in mineral sand deposits associated with modern and ancient beaches and dunes on the east, west and southern coastlines of Australia. Mineral sands deposits occur along the coast of eastern Australia from central New South Wales to Cape York in Queensland. ... Separation equipment includes high …

1. Introduction. Synthetic Rutile (SR) is an upgraded ilmenite product that has TiO 2 content between 88 and 96%. Ilmenite can be upgraded into SR via two methods: (i) ilmenite (iron oxide) reduction and separation by acid leaching and (ii) ilmenite reduction and aeration (Grey and Reid, 1973, Duong et al., 2020, Xiang et al., 2020).The …

Successful ilmenite and rutile flotation (Bulatovic et al., 1991) from siliceous gangue was achieved using a succinamate collector at a pH between 3.5 and 4.5.
