rains2019 Kenmare Resources ple Strategic objectives KC KENMARE Q (/search) Strategic objectives Kenmare operates the Moma Mine, located on the north east coast of Mozambique. The Moma Mine contains reserves of heavy minerals that include the economic titanium minerals, ilmenite and rutile, which are used as feedstocks to produce titanium dioxide pigment, as well as the relatively high-value zirconium silicate mineral, zircon, Titanium dioxide pigment is used in paints, paper and plastic production. The primary applications for zitcon are in the manufacture of opacifiers for ceramic tile production and for refractory praducts used in the steel and foundry industries. Kenmare Resources plc is a well-established major global supplier of titanium mineral sand products, with a customer base operating in over fifteen countries. The output from the Mine consists of several grades of the titanium dioxide CTi0,) minerals, ilmenite and rutile, as well as the zirconium mineral, zircon. Kenmare’s products are key raw materials that are processed into intermediate products and ultimately consumed in everyday “quality-of-life” products such as paints, plastics and ceramic tile.
