Engebø Rutile and Garnet
The realization of the Engebø project will establish Nordic Mining as a long term, climate friendly supplier of natural rutile and almandine garnet.
World-class mineral resource developed according to world-class standards
The Engebø deposit is one of the largest unexploited rutile deposits in the world and has among the highest grades of natural rutile (TiO2) compared to existing producers and other projects under development. The deposit also contains significant quantities of high-quality, almandine garnet. The scale of the mineral resource secures long-term operations. The project is being developed in accordance with high international standards for environment, health, and safety.
Regional hydroelectric power will supply the process plant with renewable energy. The deposit has a favorable location next to a deep-water quay and with efficient shipping/logistics to European and overseas markets. This limits the project’s physical footprint and minimizes environmental impacts.
According to independent studies, Engebø will have the lowest climate gas emission among all producers of titanium feedstock globally. The Engebø deposit is being developed as a dual mineral operation with production and sale of high-quality rutile and garnet. The business concept provides efficient resource utilization, risk reduction, attractive and robust economics, and valuable future expansion opportunities.
