Mineral sands deposits comprise non-consolidated to semi-consolidated sands hosting valuable heavy minerals, mainly ilmenite, rutile, leucoxene and zircon. The total content of the economic heavy minerals is usually in the order of several percent and are unevenly distributed in a matrix of gangue quartz and feldspar.

Initially the heavy mineral ore would be processed through a primary mineral separation plant, which will remove mineral sands by wet gravity separation. The HMC would then be refined by wet magnetic separation. The magnetic (mainly ilmenite) and non-magnetic (mainly rutile, zircon and leucoxene) products are to be produced for export.
