Ilmenite- rich concentrates from the fine sand (90–150 mm) component were studied to test the assumption that there is no difference between ilmenite in the parent rock and that in colluvium delivered to primary drainage systems. Ilmenite grains in the granite profile are rounded to subhedral, and commonly contain hematite exsolution blebs.

In this contribution, we have investigated ilmenite concentrates containing 133 ppm Th and 12.8 ppm U from the Mandena deposit, Madagascar, using a wide range of analytical techniques: powder X-ray diffraction, electron microprobe analysis, quantitative evaluation of materials by scanning electron microscopy, inductively coupled plasma mass ...
Rio Tinto determined that the region around Tolagnaro contained some 70 million metric tons of ilmenite—enough to supply about 10 percent of the global market for a decade or more—and began to ...
The HM comprises ilmenite as the major mineral and zircon and rutile as secondary minerals. The intermediate clay sand unit (ICSU) has high slime content with approximately 3% of HM. The lower sand unit (LSU) contains medium-grained quartz sand and variable mineralisation with moderately low slime content.
