heavy mineral sands deposits
Ilmenite Wikipedia
Although most ilmenite is recovered from heavy mineral sands ore deposits, ilmenite can also be recovered from layered intrusive sources or "hard rock" titanium ore sources. The top four ilmenite and rutile feedstock producers in 2010 were Rio Tinto Group, Iluka Resources, Exxaro and Kenmare Resources, which collectively accounted for more than 60% of world's supplies.

Alluvial and Placer Mineral Deposits | Geology for Investors
Minerals Found in Placers. For a mineral to be concentrated in a placer deposits, it needs to be both relatively heavy and resistant enough to withstand the pounding of water. The placer itself must also be old enough (millions of years) to have sorted and concentrated the heavy and resilient minerals.

Iron and titaniumbearing oxides – the "black sand" minerals. It is less common in placer concentrates than the iron oxides but it is tough mineral and can be present in at least trace amounts. Chromite is ironchrome oxide. It forms small equant black grains, is not magnetic, and has a resinous to metallic luster.

Heavy mineral sands are placer deposits formed most usually in beach environments by concentration due to the specific gravity of the mineral grains. It is equally likely that some concentrations of heavy minerals (aside from the usual gold placers) exist within streambeds, but most are of a low grade and are relatively small.

Mining minerals from sand
Layers of dark sand, rich in heavy minerals, can be mined for the heavy minerals they contain. For example, the DuPont Corporation mines heavy mineral sand from the Trail Ridge sand deposit in northern Florida. The mineral ilmenite is used as a source of titanium dioxide (TiO 2), which is used to make white plastic and paints more opaque.
