WORLDKINGS - Worldkings News - Australia Records Institute (AURI) – Iluka Resources: World's largest producer of zircon and titanium dioxide-derived rutile and synthetic rutile

08-11-2020

(Worldkings.org) Iluka established an initial 18.3 per cent interest in the UK technology company, Metalysis, which is seeking to commercialise technology to convert metals into powder, including titanium powder.

Iluka Resources is an Australian-based resources company, specialising in mineral sands exploration, project development, operations and marketing.

Iluka is the largest producer of zircon and titanium dioxide-derived rutile and synthetic rutile globally. Iluka mines heavy mineral sands and separates the concentrate into its individual mineral constituents rutile, ilmenite, and zircon. Some of the ilmenite is then processed into synthetic rutile.

Iluka has operations in the Australian states of Western Australia (Eucla and Perth Basins), South Australia (Jacinth-Ambrosia Mine), Victoria and New South Wales (Murray Basin), the United States (Virginia) and Sierra Leone.

Iluka Resources was formed in July 1998 in a merger between Westralian Sands and the titanium mineral business of RGC (Renison Goldfields Consolidated).
