Kwale Mineral Sands Royalty

Trident owns a 0.25% FOB royalty over Base Resources Ltd.’s Kwale Mineral Sands Project mine in Kenya.

Kwale Mineral Sands Royalty

The Kwale mine began operations in 2013, mining minerals sands rich in rutile, ilmenite, and zircon.  The operations use hydraulic mining where the ore is concentrated through gravity separation.  The heavy mineral concentrate is then processed in the mineral separation plant. The mineral separation plant cleans and separates the rutile, ilmenite, and zircon minerals into finished products for sale.  The products are then transported to the Company’s own Likoni Port facility, located inside Mombasa Port, for export to customers.
