Ilmenite and rutile are both titanium-bearing minerals rather than traditional iron ores. Ilmenite (FeTiO3) contains iron in addition to titanium, while rutile (TiO2) primarily consists of titanium with trace amounts of iron. Both minerals are important sources of titanium for industrial applications, but they are not primarily mined for iron.
Because with rutile they have to deal with much lower quantities of iron byproduct/waste.
Iron and steel, cement, aluminum, machine tools, petrochemicals producing industries are called mineral based industries.Mineral based industries are primary industries that use mineral ores as their raw materials. The products of these industries feed other industries. Iron made from iron ore is the product of mineral based industry. This is used as raw material for the manufacture of a number of other products, such as heavy machinery, building materials and railway coaches.
During the manufacture of Cast Iron, an intermediate product is Pig Iron. Further processing results in Cast Iron.
yes,
malleable cast iron has temper graphite
yes......however there are better examples of iron ores but ilmenite and rutile ARE iron ores.
True
Yes, ilmenite and rutile are sources of titanium, not iron. They are titanium-bearing minerals commonly found in beach sands.
1.Titanium 2.ilmenite 3.Rutile.
Titanium is commonly found in the mineral ilmenite, which is a major source of titanium ore. Rutile and leucoxene are other minerals that also contain titanium. These ores are typically found in beach sands and mineral deposits around the world.
Both contain the useful metal titanium. Titanium can be refined from them profitably.
The most common titanium ores are rutile and ilmenite. Though there are many more.
Because with rutile they have to deal with much lower quantities of iron byproduct/waste.
Ores.
By smelting iron ores in the furnace, you'll earn iron ingots. Iron ores can be obtained by mining in generated caves.

Titanium dioxide (TiO2) primarily comes from two main sources: ilmenite and rutile, which are natural mineral ores. Ilmenite is the most abundant source, containing iron and titanium, while rutile is a purer form of titanium dioxide. The extraction process typically involves mining these ores and then refining them through chemical processes to produce TiO2 suitable for various applications, including pigments, coatings, and sunscreens. Additionally, TiO2 can also be synthesized through chemical processes, although this is less common.
