Comments on the production information

  • RUTILE TYPE PIGMENTS ARE OUTPUT FROM THE CHLORIDE PLANT; ANATASE TYPE PIGMENTS ARE FROM THE SULFATE PLANT. *CHLORIDE PLANT MAKES PIGMENT FOR PAINT AND PLASTICS MARKETS, GRADE IS ASSUMED TO BE 93%. SULFATE PLANT MAKES PIGMENT FOR CERAMICS AND ESALTOMERS MARKETS, GRADE IS ASSUMED TO BE 95%.
  • RECOVERY FOR CHLORIDE PROCESS RANGES FROM 95% FOR NATURAL ORES TO 90% FOR SLAG. RECOVERY RATE USING THE CURRENT MIX OF ORES IS ESTIMATED TO BE 92.3%. EXPECTED RECOVERY FROM SULFATE ORES IS 85%.

Comments on the reserve resource information

  • FEED GRADE FOR CHLORIDE PLANT IS 94.13%, FOR SULFATE PLANT IS 44.5%.
  • CHLORIDE AND SULFATE PLANT. ALL COSTS IN 1991 DOLLARS. EXCHANGE RATE IS 0.5652 L = $1. FEEDSTOCK IS NATURAL RUTILE FROM SIERRA LEONE, SYNTHETIC RUTILE FROM AUSTRALIA, AND SLAG FROM S. AFRICA FOR THE CHLORIDE PLANT; ILMENITE FROM NORWAY FOR THE SULFATE PLANT.
