Mineral Sands Report: October 2005

Single copy - October issue

Mineral Sands Report is a monthly newsletter covering all aspects of the titanium minerals, TiO2 pigment and zircon industries. It provides up to date news, analysis, pricing and data, making it the source of information for the industry. In the October 2005 issue of Mineral Sands Report:

News- Hurricane impacts update... Pigment price increases in hurricane’s wake... Anglo, Kumba in talks over Namakwa BEE deal... IPO for Kerr-McGee Chemicals business... Metal producers report higher sales income from higher prices...

Special Report- Supply developments in titanium feedstocks and zircon: new projects update. In the past few years, development effort has primarily focused on new sources for high TiO2 chloride grade feedstocks. However, the current and continuing tight market for zircon, with the accompanying high prices, has encouraged the rapid development of a number of new projects based on zircon, rather than ilmenite. In this market climate, there are presently seven new mineral sands projects that have been approved and are currently in the pre-commissioning phase of development. In a Special Report, MSR publishes the latest available information, including forecast production and startup dates, for the projects currently under construction and those for which a decision on whether to proceed to construction is foreshadowed in the next few months.

Trade Data- Asian feedstock imports. TZMI examines trade flow and volumes for Asian feedstock imports, and Asian pigment capacity.

Pricing Pages- Regular pricing information and pricing developments for feedstocks, and TZMI’s Global Feedstock Price Index.

Quarterly Update- This month, Mineral Sands Report presents an update of developments in the supply-demand for zircon.
