Ilmenite is a metallic to submetallic mineral that is generally iron black. At times it can form brightly lustered intricately faceted crystals or radial clusters arranged in a rosette fashion. Platy hexagonal crystals with rhombohedral faces on the edges can appear very similar to hematite's

Read MoreIlmenite is one of the most significant ores of the metal titanium. It is mined as an important industrial mineral in several deposits throughout the world. Many of those deposits are in heavy placer sands. Ilmenite is very similar in structure to Hematite, and is essentially the same as Hematite with roughly half the iron replaced with titanium.. Ilmenite is named after the locality of the ...
Read MoreEven though rutile is the more common mineral and has a higher percentage of titanium in its formula, it is not concentrated in igneous deposits like ilmenite and is therefore less useful as an ore. Titanium is three times stronger than steel, while weighing only 42%
Read MoreIt includes minerals that are quite hard (corundum) and some that are quite soft such as psilomelane. It has metallic minerals such as hematite and gemstones such as corundum, chrysoberyl and spinel. Many oxides are black but others can be very colorful.
Read MoreThe Mont Saint-Hilaire site is truly a unique mineral locality. It has produced specimens of over three hundred different minerals with nearly 30 that are new to science and many more yet to be officially recognized as new minerals. The minerals from this site are listed in the comprehensive table of Mont Saint-Hilaire minerals.
