Mineral Sand Mining in Australia - Industry Market Research Report
Description
Mineral Sand Mining in Australia
Australia is a major mineral sands mining country due to its large natural reserves and extensive mining sites. Most of the Mineral Sand Mining industry's products proceed to downstream smelting and refining companies for processing prior to being exported or used by domestic manufacturers. Titanium dioxide products are mainly sold to pigment manufacturers, while zircon is primarily sold to producers of refractory bricks for use in metal smelting operations. Consequently, industry demand largely derives from these downstream manufacturing markets. Industry production volumes have increased over the past five years, as industry firms have increased output to benefit from higher prices.
Industry firms primarily engage in mining titanium dioxide mineral sands, such as rutile, ilmenite and leucoxene, for titanium dioxide pigment production. Industry firms also mine for zircon sand to produce synthetic rutile.
This report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also included are five year industry forecasts, growth rates and an analysis of the industry key players and their market shares.
