The mineral is usually found in igneous rocks and is named after the Ilmenski mountains in Russia where it was first discovered. It is used extensively in the paint industry for its ability to impart whiteness and opacity, and in other industries for the production of titanium metal, titanium dioxide pigment and as a flux in welding.

Ilmenite
Ilmenite is a weakly magnetic titanium-iron oxide mineral which is iron-black or steel-gray. It is a crystalline iron titanium oxide. It crystallizes in the trigonal system. The ilmenite crystal structure is an ordered derivative of the corundum structure; in corundum all cations are identical but in ilmenite Fe2+ and Ti4+ ions occupy alternating layers perpendicular to the trigonal c axis.
