Titanium Investment Chart Overview
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. Wheel/Pinch=Zoom · Drag=Box zoom · Alt+Drag/Arrows=Pan · Double-click=Reset
Ilmenite production
Rutile production
Ilmenite reserves
Rutile reserves
- Production is the amount mined or manufactured during a period. Reserves are known deposits considered economically recoverable under current technical and price assumptions, so the two figures describe different things.
- Compare production and reserves separately: one is a flow during a period, while the other is an estimated stock remaining underground.
- Definitions, cost limits and reporting methods can differ by source, so compare figures from the same source and reference period.
- Data through:
- MCS 2026 · 2025 estimate
- Frequency:
- Annual
- Units:
- thousand metric tons TiO2 content
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.

Titanium sponge production
Operating capacity
- Capacity is the maximum output a mine, plant or factory could produce under stated operating assumptions. Actual output may be lower because of maintenance, demand or supply constraints.
- Compare capacity with actual output or utilization. A larger capacity figure does not mean the full amount was produced or sold.
- Before comparing changes, check the unit, reporting period, region and whether recent values may be revised.
- Data through:
- MCS 2026 · 2025 estimate
- Frequency:
- Annual
- Units:
- metric tons / metric tons per year
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

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.

Capacity outlook
- Forecast values are estimates based on the source’s latest data, model or scenario, not completed observations. They may be revised as assumptions and incoming data change.
- Separate historical observations from forecast sections and check the issue date and scenario before using the estimate.
- Keep observed data separate from forecasts and check the publication date, scenario and forecast horizon.

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.

Price history
Sponge import price
- Apparent consumption estimates how much material was available for domestic use from production, trade and stock data. It is a calculated supply balance, not a direct survey of buyers.
- Compare values only when their labels, units and periods match. Different panels may show related measures that cannot be added together.
- Before comparing changes, check the unit, reporting period, region and whether recent values may be revised.
- Data through:
- DS140 through 2020 · MCS estimate through 2025
- Frequency:

- Units:
- metric tons / USD per metric ton / USD per kilogram
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.

Price history
- Stocks or inventories are quantities held at the locations covered by the source. Changes can reflect production, consumption, trade or differences in reporting coverage.
- A rising inventory means more material was reported in storage. The reason may involve production, demand, trade or changes in reporting coverage.
- Before comparing changes, check the unit, reporting period, region and whether recent values may be revised.

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.

Mineral concentrates
- Imports and exports are gross flows entering and leaving a country or region. Net trade is the difference between them, so the two flows should not be treated as the same measure.
- Imports and exports are gross flows; net trade is their difference. Confirm the sign convention before interpreting a positive or negative value.

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.

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

Ferrotitanium price
- This chart tracks the published market price or price index for the period shown. Check the currency, unit and pricing method before comparing it with another series.
- An upward line means the reported price increased over that interval. It does not show whether the price is high or low relative to supply and demand, or predict the next move.
- Use this indicator together with supply, demand and broader economic conditions. One chart alone cannot reliably predict the next price move.
