c) Planned zones

4 zones for extraction of titanium ores to provide raw materials for processing establishments must be planned provided that they are proportional to the characteristics of ore technology and the level of processing capacity as follows: 

- Region I: Thai Nguyen area (original ores and mineral sands).

- Region II: Ha Tinh – Thua Thien Hue area (mineral sands contained in the gray sand layer).

- Region III: Quang Nam – Binh Dinh – Phu Yen area (mineral sands contained in the gray sand layer).

- Region IV: Ninh Thuan – Binh Thuan area (mineral sands contained in the gray and red sand layer).

...

...

...

- For the period from now to 2015

+ Complete exploration of ores according to the agreed policy at areas, such as Thai Nguyen, Quang Binh, Quang Tri, Binh Dinh, Ninh Thuan and Binh Thuan, in order to prospect for the reliable ore reserve that is expected to meet demands for raw materials supplied to mineral processing factories.

+ Complete exploration of titanium ores contained in red sand layers located at Luong Son, Bac Binh Thuan to enable the large-scale extraction and processing industry.

- For the period of 2016 - 2020

In reliance upon the capability of executing mineral extraction and deep processing projects, carry out mineral prospects throughout expanded areas in the proximity of Luong Son area (Northern Binh Thuan) and those containing titanium minerals at the red sand layer within the territory of Ninh Thuan province.      

- For post-2020 period

Prospect for titanium ore deposits contained in the rest of red sand layers.

Ensure that mineral exploration projects shall be commenced provided that there are mineral extraction and deep processing projects which have been proved feasible in technical and economic aspects.

Total proposed reserve of existing titaniums and those which are currently prospected for and are going to be prospected for to be extracted in a planning period is about 150 million tonnes of heavy minerals (approximately 120 million tonnes of ilmenite concentrates).

...

...

...

dd) Titanium ore extraction and processing plan

- The plan for extraction and selection of titanium ores

+ For the period from now to 2015: Mainly extract original titanium ores (Thai Nguyen area) and titanium minerals contained in gray sand layers (all 4 regions).  Focus on technological improvement, innovation and upgradation in order to increase the rate of recovery of useful minerals and efficient water and electric power consumption. Conduct technological researches and prepare investments in mineral extraction projects at Luong Son area (Northern Binh Thuan).

+ For the period of 2016 - 2020: Carry out the ongoing extraction of titanium minerals contained in the active mines and prospect for titanium minerals obtained from mines which have been being searched from now to 2015 in provinces such as Thai Nguyen, Ninh Thuan and Binh Thuan.  Invest in extraction and selection of titanium ores at Luong Son area (Northern Binh Thuan) carried out by applying modern technologies and on a large scale.

+ For the post-2020 period: Sustain mineral production activities at mines of which the ore reserve remains. Take into account specific conditions (including market, deep processing capability, financing capability and infrastructure, etc.) before making a decision to develop a new project.

- The technology for extraction and selection of titanium ores:

+ Original titanium ores searched for within Thai Nguyen area: Apply the following technological process to the mineral extraction, including drilling and blasting → shoveling → carting → selecting primary minerals → selecting ore concentrates (with respect to ilmenite and rutile ore concentrates).

+ Titanium ores contained in coastal mineral sands (in gray and red sand layers): Apply the following technological process to the mineral extraction, including milling and grinding → pumping and sucking → selecting primary minerals → selecting ore concentrates (with respect to ilmenite, rutile, zirconium and monazite ore concentrates).

The list of titanium extraction projects shall be shown in the Appendix III to this Decision.

...

...

...

Titanium product processing zones shall be planned as follows:

+ Region I: Mainly produce titanium slags.

+ Region II: Mainly produce titanium slags and super-fine zircons.

+ Region III: Produce titanium slags, reconstituted ilmenites, super-fine zirconium powders and pigments.

+ Region IV: Construct and develop this region to become the center for titanium industry, and extract and process titanium minerals on a large scale and by applying advanced technologies; aim at producing proposed products such as titanium slags, super-fine zircons, zirconium oxychloride salts, pigments, titanium sponges/ metals and titanium alloys.

New investment projects for mineral processing should adhere to the principle of mineral processing concentrated investments in order to achieve the economy of scale and facilitate application of advanced technologies and environmental treatment; a processing establishment can use raw materials obtained from titanium mines inside or outside of this region.

Titanium product processing shall be planned as follows:

+ For the period from now to 2015: Mainly produce titanium slags, reconstituted ilmenites and several zircon-derived products (super fine zirconium powders, zirconium oxychloride), artificial rutiles, welding flux, etc. which meet domestic and export demands. Conduct technological researches, prepare investments in projects for production of pigments that have the minimum capacity of 30 thousand tonnes/year per each plant, and those for production of ferrotitaniums and titanium sponges/ metals which have the capacity of up to 20 thousand tonnes/ year.

+ For the period of 2016 - 2020: Boost up the processing capacity of titanium slags for export purposes and of other products within selling capabilities. Invest in and operate 2-3 pigment plants (as planned, these plants shall be located in Binh Thuan, Binh Dinh and Ninh Thuan) and titanium sponge/metal plants (as planned, these plants shall be located in Binh Thuan), titanium alloy projects with priority given to ferrotitanium products (at titanium slag, mechanical engineering, metallurgy plants or other independent ones).
