The company maintains a dual-asset strategy, anchored by the Grande Cote Mineral Sands Project in Senegal and the TiZir Titanium and Iron Ilmenite Upgrading Facility in Norway. This unique operational structure allows the firm to bridge the gap between raw mineral extraction and high-value metallurgical refinement. By integrating mining, logistics, and advanced R&D, TiZir serves critical sectors including steel production, battery manufacturing, and specialty alloy development, positioning itself as a vital link in the global industrial materials market.

What's next for TiZir?
With the recent injection of capital, TiZir is poised to enhance its metallurgical throughput and operational efficiency. The company's strategic roadmap focuses on maximizing the output of its Norwegian upgrading facility while maintaining sustainable mining practices at its Senegalese site. As the global demand for titanium and zircon continues to fluctuate, TiZir's ability to leverage the technical expertise of its parent companies—Mineral Deposits and Eramet—will be instrumental in navigating market volatility. Future growth will likely center on optimizing logistics and expanding the reach of its refined products into emerging battery and fertilizer markets, further cementing its status as a leader in the mineral sands industry.
