Bulk Sampling Facility and Exclusivity Agreement Extension
As recently announced, a bulk sampling facility will be connected directly to the live oil sands tailings pipe just as in a full-scale commercial operation.
This is one more positive step toward commercialization of Titanium Corporation’s Oil Sands Project. This facility will generate data critical to the development of the process flowsheet, operational costing and identification of equipment for the future commercial plant.
The bulk sampling plant is a modular, portable unit which will operate for several months, after which it could be used to sample other oil sands operator tailings.This plant is being fabricated in Brisbane, Australia by R.J. Robbins and Associates (one of the world’s recognized mineral sand engineering firms who also designed and supplied some of the equipment currently being used at our Regina demonstration plant).
The equipment will be shipped by container to Fort McMurray and we anticipate its installation and operation by late Summer 2005.
The three-way exclusivity agreement [see news release dated June 10, 2003] between Titanium Corporation, the oil sands producer and a major titanium dioxide pigment producer has been extended for a further 12 months.
