titanium dioxide through "sulphate process". The main raw
materials are Ilmenite (mixed oxide of titanium) ferrous iron and ferric iron
for the production ... process of
manufacture/production of the product. According to them, the Ground
Ilmenite is digested with hot concentrated Sulphuric acid. The hot cake
obtained
redrawn wires are led into the extrusion plant; materials like rutile sand, ilmenite, mica, felspar, cellulose etc. are mixed in a particular ratio ... absence of evidence of procurement of raw materials like rutile, ilmenite, mica, felspar and cellulose and utilization [hereof in the manufacture of the final product
sand reported that it contains quartz, traces of albite, almandite, hornblende, ilmenite, monazite, rutile, sillimanite and zircon. As regards the various minerals separated from ... sand, it reported then to be ilmenite(with traces of rutile and hematite), rutile, zircon, sillimanite and minute traces of zircon and garnet (almandite
sand available on sea beach. Rare minerals separated by them are Ilmenite, Rutile, Zircon, Sillimanite, Garnet and Monazite. The process carried out by the appellant
part. In this case, the hydrochloric acid used in the 'ilmenite' had not suffered duty. Therefore, the 2nd respondent seeks to impose
sand available on sea beach. Rare minerals separated by them are Ilmenite, Rutile, Zircon, Sillimanite, Garnet and Monazite. The process carried out by the appellant
part. In this case, the hydro chloric acid used in the 'ilmenite' has not suffered duty. Therefore, the 2nd respondant seeks to impose
impurities. In support of his contention, Shri Lakshmikumaran also referred to Ilmenite (black), which was a titanic iron ore (FeO TiO2) as also Manganese Dioxide ... seen from Hawley's Chemical Dictionary that all the three - Graphite, Ilmenite black and Manganese Dioxide - occurred naturally and were also produced synthetically
with an explanatory memorandum seeking to reduce the export duty levaible on ilmenite, upgraded from 5% to 2.5%.
