Raised funds are necessary to create high-tech production of titanium products with high added value from titanium-bearing raw materials on the basis of the Tailing dump No. 1 existing resource base of the Zlatoust mining (Magnitka village, Kusinsky district of Chelyabinsk region). This facility contains about 2 450 000 tons of waste sands.
Results of trial drilling and X-ray fluorescence analysis conducted by the Institute of Mineralogy, Ural branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences, confirm that sands contain from 4% to 8% of titanium dioxide in the form of tiny particles less than 0.4 mm of the mineral ilmenite. In this way, the object is a warehouse of already mined and crushed material ready for industrial processing. In the processing of the total amount of resources it can be obtained about 350 000 tons of ilmenite concentrate with content TiO2 of at least 42%, which total cost is more than $100 million.

How important is TiO2
The global consumption of titanium dioxide has increased from 4.5 million tons per year in 2005 to 6.8 million tons per year in 2016, which amounted to about 13.5 billion dollars. The main countries providing growth in titanium dioxide consumption today are China, Indonesia, Thailand, the Philippines, India, Turkey, Russia and Brazil. Per capita consumption of titanium dioxide in China is 1.1 kg per year, compared with 2.7 kg for Europe and the United States.
In its pure form and in alloys, titanium is used not only in the aircraft building and automotive industries, but also in chemical, agricultural, food and medical industries, various industrial processes, as well as in sports goods, mobile phones and consumer electronics.
Depending on the total amount of funds raised, the project will be implemented completely or partially. Implementation of even the first stage of the project will allow the company to increase the volume of products significantly and strengthen the autonomy of Russia in the global industrial arena.
