Mineralogy and provenance of the TiO₂ - ilmenite heavy mineral sand deposit of Nataka
… products spanning from hydrated ilmenite to leucoxene. The alteration dominantly involved groundwater, which was oxidizing and acidic, hence the predominance of ilmenite-pseudorutile alteration. Long exposure to direct sunshine has been hypothesized as a different process that might have …

Elutriation Technology in Heavy Mineral Separations
… other valuable heavy minerals such as ilmenite, leucoxene, rutile, zircon, and staurolite. The results of two different pilot-scale in-plant testing investigations are discussed. In general, quartz rejections in excess of 80% were achieved while maintaining TiO2 and heavy mineral recoveries above …

Mineral Chemistry of Heavy Minerals in the Old Hickory Deposit, Sussex and Dinwiddie Counties, Virginia
… mineral sands at the site are ilmenite (FeTiO₃), leucoxene (Fe<SUB>2-x</SUB>Ti<SUB>3+x</SUB>O<SUB>9+x/2</SUB>) where x is less than or equal to 2, rutile (TiO₂), and zircon (ZrSiO₄). An important focus of this study is the alteration of ilmenite by leaching away of iron, which results in …

THORIUM SPECIATION IN SYNTHETIC ANHYDRITE, PLACER ILMENITE CONCENTRATE, AND TITANIA SLAG: IMPLICATIONS FOR THORIUM GEOCHEMICAL BEHAVIOR, SEQUESTRATION, AND BENEFICIATION
Understanding thorium speciation and distribution in ore minerals and related materials is of critical importance so that the thorium fuel cycle can be sourced as byproducts from metallurgical processes. The objective of this dissertation is to study thorium-bearing species in selected ore minerals …
