Is ilmenite and rutile are iron ores?
Yes, ilmenite and rutile are sources of titanium, not iron. They are titanium-bearing minerals commonly found in beach sands.
Where does titanium come from?
Titanium is a chemical element that is commonly found in minerals such as ilmenite, rutile, and titanite. These minerals are typically mined in countries with abundant mineral resources, such as Australia, South Africa, and Canada. Once the minerals are extracted from the earth, they undergo a process called "reduction" to separate the titanium from other elements, resulting in the production of pure titanium metal.
Does rutile have cleavage or fracture?
yes rutile has cleavage-distinct (100) yes rutile has fracture
Is ilmenite a proper noun?
No, the noun 'ilmenite' is a common noun, a general word for a type of mineral; a word for any ilmenite anywhere.A proper noun is the name or title of a specific person, place, or thing; for example, Ilmenite Way (a street) in Henderson Nevada or Ilmenite Crescent (also a street) in Capel WA, Australia.

What has the author G W Elger written?
G. W Elger has written: 'Producing synthetic rutile from ilmenite by pyrometallurgy' -- subject(s): Rutile, Ilmenite
Which of the titanium-containing minerals rutile (TiO2) or ilmenite (FeTiO3) has the larger percent of titanium?
Rutile (TiO2) has a higher percentage of titanium compared to ilmenite (FeTiO3). Specifically, rutile contains about 60% titanium by weight, while ilmenite contains approximately 36% titanium. Therefore, rutile is the titanium-rich mineral of the two.
Is ilmenite and rutile are iron ores?
Yes, ilmenite and rutile are sources of titanium, not iron. They are titanium-bearing minerals commonly found in beach sands.
What mineral is titanium made from?
Rutile (TiO2) and ilmenite (FeTiO3).
What is the common form of the element titanium?
(Fe,Mg,Mn,Ti)O3, Ilmenite {mostly FeTiO3} and Titanium Dioxide, TiO2, Rutile. By the formulas, Ilmenite includes Iron, Magnesium, Manganese, Titanium and Oxygen. Rutile is simpler and composed of Titanium and Oxygen (Oxidized Titanium, Titanium rust!)
What does ores contain?
1.Titanium 2.ilmenite 3.Rutile.
Where do we get titanium in nature?
The most known minerals of titanium are ilmenite and rutile.
Why do manufacturers obtain titnium from rutile than from ilmenite?
Because with rutile they have to deal with much lower quantities of iron byproduct/waste.
