US-based mineral sands producer Tronox may build a rare earths processing plant in Western Australia. The company has approached the state government about the plant, which would process a waste by-product of mineral sands mining known as monazite. Tronox proposes to stockpile monazite in WA for 3-5 years to use as feedstock for the plant, while sources have suggested that it may also import monazite from its South African operations to be processed. Tronox has mineral sands mines in WA and NSW. Iluka Resources is also building a plant to process monazite that it has been stockpiling for three decades.
