Start with our frequently asked questions, below. Where does titanium come from? Titanium is found in North America, South America, Europe, Africa, China, Australia, Russia, as well as other countries.Titanium is the 9th most abundant element in the earthâs crust and 4th most abundant metallic element. In its natural state it is generally found as rutile (titanium and oxygen) or illmenite (titanium, oxygen and iron).
Titanium is a transition metal which is very strong and light (4.4 gm/cm3). It has a high melting point (1800Â°C) and finds application in aircraft wings, particularly at points which are subjected to the high heat of exhaust. Titanium dioxide in powder form is very white and is used to advantage as a pigment in special paints and face powders. Titanium dioxide, TiO2, in crystalline form appears in the mineral rutile. It may be colored by small amounts of other metal oxides and has been used for gems. Titanium dioxide also makes up the minerals Brookite and anatase. Titanium and iron together form the oxides ilmenite, FeTiO3, and pseudobrookite, Fe2TiO5.
