ABSTRACT:
Titanium metal values may be recovered from titanium and iron bearing sources such as an ilmenite ore by subjecting the source to an oxidation treatment and a reductive roast after having crushed the source to a desired particle size. The reduced source is then leached by treatment with a halogen-containing compound to form soluble titanium halides and iron halides. Thereafter the soluble titanium halide is precipitated as titanium dioxide by treatment with an iron oxide such as ferric oxide and recovered. The amount of titanium dioxide which is recovered is determined by the amount of reductant utilized in the reductive roast.
