Quick Answer. Most deposits of titanium minerals are found in Australia, Canada, United States, India, South Africa, Ukraine and Norway, according to Minerals Education Coalition. It is found in numerous minerals, particularly ilmenite and rutile.
Titanium occurs in rocks in the form of oxide and silicate minerals. Of greatest economic value are titanium-bearing oxide minerals such as ilmenite, rutile, anatase, brookite, perovskite and magnetite. Rutile (titanium dioxide) and ilmenite (35% - 65% titanium dioxide) are the two primary sources of titanium products, with ilmenite the most abundant (Force, E.R, 1991). Ilmenite ore is sourced through the mining of magmatic and heavy mineral sand (also referred to as placer) deposits.
