The results of physical and chemical studies of a representative sample of substandard titanium concentrate from the Obukhovskoye deposit are presented. According to the results of X-ray phase analysis, the main components of the concentrate are ilmenite and synthetic rutile, titanium chromium oxide iron chromate, etc. Mineralogical analysis data indicate that the concentrate consists of rutile and ilmenite. The conducted electron probe studies have established that rare and rare earth elements in ilmenite concentrate are found in various minerals in the form of monazite inclusion. The results obtained will be taken into account when developing methods for the complex extraction of valuable components from this raw material.
