Mineral sands production in Western Australia predominantly comprises titanium minerals such as ilmenite, leucoxene, synthetic rutile and rutile. Other products such as garnet sand, zircon and staurolite are also produced on a smaller scale.
Mineral Sands Industry Information Iluka Resources
2019-11-27 mineral sands, heavy mineral (HM) grade provides a good indication of the cost of mining how much ore needs to be moved to capture heavy mineral. However, most mineral sands mines produce several product streams predominantly ilmenite, with lesser quantities of the more valuable minerals of rutile and zircon.

Mineral sands From ancient oceans to modern technology
2020-5-22 Mineral sands are a group of minerals such as ilmenite, rutile and zircon commonly found together as coarse and fine grain sands. Originally formed as crystals in igneous rocks such as granite or basalt and some metamorphic rocks, these minerals were eroded by wind, rain and rivers over millions of years. The resulting grains washed down to the sea to become part of the coastal sands of ancient beaches. Tidal movements washed away the lighter mineral sand grains, such as quartz sands, leaving the heavier mineral sands
