The rutile process from mine to consumer

 Rutile is mined from ore or                  Rutile is processed through              Majority of TiO2 feedstocks are
  mineral sands producing a rutile              chlorination in reactors which            used in production of pigment in
  concentrate                                   produces TiO2 pigment                     paints, plastics and paper
 Key rutile producing countries               Optional metallurgical process           Approximately 5% is used for
  are Sierra Leone, South Africa                to produce titanium metal and             titanium metal
  and Australia                                 high performance alloys
