Preliminary exploration campaigns were conducted in the area located in the central region of Cameroon, and identified a strong potential for rutile, a mineral sand composed of titanium, used essentially in the production of pigments.<\/p>\n<p>This project would provide a diversification of the Group product portfolio on the rutile market, which is particularly attractive and would reinforce the mineral sands activities currently operated in Senegal. This development is fully in line with Eramet\u2019s strategy to develop a diversified portfolio of assets through mining exploration on the Group\u2019s strategic metals and in new countries.<\/p>\n<div><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eramet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Eramet-PR-Cameroon-20191129.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read the press release<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":30928,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[84,44],"tags":[133,332,293,127],"class_list":["post-31579","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-finance-en","category-group","tag-akonolinga-en","tag-cameroon","tag-exploration-en","tag-mineral-sands","nature-news"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.3.1 -
