The bids for the sale of heavy minerals including ilmenite were being called in the latter part of every year to coincide with the Chinese New Year, an industry official said, adding that during this period the ilmenite price will go down due to less demand. At the time of calling bids for the sale of ilmenite the price was around$145-$147per ton.
and iron compounds containing 53.21% TiO2 and 42.57% iron oxides [1,24], Sri Lanka is not entirely benefited from the ore due to the lack of a proper ilmenite processing plant to extract TiO2 and other related compounds in the country itself. In general, ilmenite is globally recognized as a vital resource of both titanium and iron.
The deposit is approximately 4 miles in length with an average width of about 200 feet. The richest part of the deposit is the southern part, where the percentage of heavy mineral amounts to 95%. The approximate composi- tion of the sand is as follows: ilmenite (FeO.TiO2) 70--80% w/w; rutile (TiO2) 8--12% w/w; and zircon (ZrO2.SiO2) 8--10% w/w.
