Ilmenite - Europe
Ilmenite Producer Supplying Portugal
Direct from producing regions: ilmenite supplied to Portugal with verified origin, independent assay and Sines delivery.
Securing ilmenite close to the producer is how buyers in Portugal protect both margin and provenance. CriticalOre works at the production end of the chain in Southeast Asia, supplying ilmenite (FeTiO₃) titanium feedstock from the same heavy mineral sands chains as our monazite with documented origin and the logistics to land it reliably at Sines.
Portugal is combining Atlantic port access with lithium and tungsten mining heritage. CriticalOre supports that demand with independently tested material, EU-ready documentation and logistics tuned to European ports - the supply profile the EU Critical Raw Materials Act era rewards.
