摘要：Te mineral ilmenite (FeTiO3) is an important componentof heavy-mineral placer deposits and constitutes the largestvolume of valuable mineral in such deposits. Te mineralszircon (ZrSiO4) and rutile (TiO2), which occur in lower concentrations than ilmenite in the deposits, have a greater valueper ton – c. 1100 and 900 $/ton respectively – compared toilmenite that ranges from 100 to 200 $/ton depending onits composition. Other minerals such as staurolite, sillimanite, amphibole and garnet are generally also present in placerdeposits, but are of minor or no commercial value and, e.g.amphibole needs to be separated from the valuable heavyminerals which adds to the production cost.
