✦ Synopsis

Australia: Austpac -TiO 2 feedstock

Austpac is evaluating sites in eastern Australia for the establishment of its first commercial-scale synrutile plant, employing its patented ERMS-SR technology. The plant will be designed to produce 30,000 tonnes/y of synrutile. Consolidated Rutile has agreed to supply Austpac with 70,000 tonnes/y of high-chrome ilmenite, from its mining operations on North Stradbroke Island, just off the coast of Queensland. Iluka, the world's leading supplier of synrutile, has agreed to purchase the entire synrutile output. Both agreements are subject to the completion of satisfactory feasibility studies.

Iluka can also obtain exclusive licensing rights for the ERMS-SR technology, subject to certain conditions. Iluka will also have an option to buy a 10% financial stake in Austpac.
