Introduction
As global industries continue to grow in demand for high-performance materials, ilmenite sand—a rich source of titanium dioxide (TiO₂)—has become increasingly important in sectors ranging from aerospace to paint manufacturing. While countries like Australia and South Africa have traditionally dominated the market, Nigeria is quietly becoming a strategic source of ilmenite, and Augustina Impex Limited is proud to be among the leading exporters of this valuable mineral.
What is Ilmenite Sand?
Ilmenite is a titanium-iron oxide mineral (FeTiO₃) and the primary source of titanium dioxide, which is widely used in:
The sand form of ilmenite—known as ilmenite sand—is especially suitable for processing and export due to its granular composition and ease of handling.
Nigeria’s Ilmenite Potential
Nigeria is blessed with coastal and inland heavy mineral sand deposits rich in ilmenite, rutile, and zircon. Ilmenite occurrences have been documented in Ondo, Lagos, Bayelsa, Plateau, Nasarawa, and other mineralized regions. Despite the abundance, this resource remains underexploited, creating opportunities for both local beneficiation and international export.
