Titanium Investment Chart Overview
Explore world titanium mineral, sponge and pigment production and capacity, U.S. supply, import sources, trade and material prices using official USGS data.
USGS Titanium Mineral Production and Reserves by Country
USGS Titanium Mineral Production and Reserves by Country. Ilmenite and rutile are titanium-bearing minerals; production and reserves are shown separately in thousand tonnes of contained TiO2. Reserves are economically recoverable quantities under USGS definitions, not all known geological resources; 2025 production is estimated.

- Ilmenite and rutile are titanium-bearing minerals; production and reserves are shown separately in thousand tonnes of contained TiO2.
- Reserves are economically recoverable quantities under USGS definitions, not all known geological resources; 2025 production is estimated.
USGS Titanium Sponge Production and Capacity by Country
USGS Titanium Sponge Production and Capacity by Country. Titanium sponge is the porous primary metal used before melting into ingots and alloys; it is different from TiO2 pigment. Production is actual estimated output, while capacity is the maximum yearend operating capability; the two values must not be added.

Operating capacity
- Titanium sponge is the porous primary metal used before melting into ingots and alloys; it is different from TiO2 pigment.
- Production is actual estimated output, while capacity is the maximum yearend operating capability; the two values must not be added.
USGS TiO2 Pigment Capacity by Country
USGS TiO2 Pigment Capacity by Country. TiO2 pigment capacity measures annual nameplate ability to make white titanium dioxide pigment, widely used in paints, plastics and paper. Capacity is not the same as actual output or demand; unused plants and operating rates can create a large gap. Wheel/Pinch=Zoom · Drag=Box zoom · Alt+Drag/Arrows=Pan · Double-click=Reset
TiO2 pigment capacity
- TiO2 pigment capacity measures annual nameplate ability to make white titanium dioxide pigment, widely used in paints, plastics and paper.
- Capacity is not the same as actual output or demand; unused plants and operating rates can create a large gap.
USGS World Titanium Sponge Production and Capacity Outlook
USGS World Titanium Sponge Production and Capacity Outlook. Historical output and operating or idled capacity are estimates; the 2025–2029 line is the capacity outlook in the 2025 USGS edition. An outlook is a scenario based on projects known by the publication cutoff, not a latest observation or guaranteed production forecast.

USGS U.S. Titanium Sponge Supply and Prices
USGS U.S. Titanium Sponge Supply and Prices. Reported consumption is surveyed use in the historical series; apparent consumption is a supply-balance estimate and is shown separately from 2021. The DS140 unit value in USD per ton and the MCS landed import price in USD per kilogram have different bases and remain in separate panels.

- Reported consumption is surveyed use in the historical series; apparent consumption is a supply-balance estimate and is shown separately from 2021.
- The DS140 unit value in USD per ton and the MCS landed import price in USD per kilogram have different bases and remain in separate panels.
USGS U.S. TiO2 Pigment Supply and Prices
USGS U.S. TiO2 Pigment Supply and Prices. Apparent TiO2 pigment consumption equals production plus imports minus exports and estimates material available to U.S. users, not final retail demand. DS140 history is extended with compatible MCS observations; the 2025 values are estimates and missing stocks are not filled with zero.

USGS Recent U.S. Titanium Mineral Supply and Prices
USGS Recent U.S. Titanium Mineral Supply and Prices. Titanium mineral supply is reported in thousand tonnes of contained TiO2; rutile, ilmenite and slag prices use separate market or import-value bases. Net import reliance is the share of apparent consumption met by net imports; it is a dependency indicator, not a measure of shortage.

USGS U.S. Titanium Import Sources
USGS U.S. Titanium Import Sources. Bars show average 2021–24 country shares separately for titanium sponge, TiO2 pigment and mineral concentrate imports. Each product group sums to 100%; blank cells mean that a country was not listed for that product, not zero trade in every period.

USGS Quarterly U.S. Titanium Trade
USGS Quarterly U.S. Titanium Trade. Quarterly trade uses product gross weight in metric tons; metal, sponge, pigment and mineral concentrates remain in separate panels. Imports and exports are not netted, and titanium content is not inferred from gross product weight. Wheel/Pinch=Zoom · Drag=Box zoom · Alt+Drag/Arrows=Pan · Double-click=Reset

USGS Quarterly Titanium Material Prices
USGS Quarterly Titanium Material Prices. Mineral, sponge, pigment, producer-index and ferrotitanium prices use different units and quotation bases, so each is shown on its own panel. Most series are market quotations or landed import unit values, not a single universal titanium price. Wheel/Pinch=Zoom · Drag=Box zoom · Alt+Drag/Arrows=Pan · Double-click=Reset
