Description
As at 31 December 2025
Ilmenite-rich open-pit mineral sands mine in the Perth Basin, Western Australia, feeding heavy mineral concentrate to the Narngulu mineral separation plant. Production was suspended from 1 December 2025 in response to weak titanium dioxide (pigment) demand; the site was placed on care and maintenance. Reserves and resources are reported at the Perth Basin level. Cataby produced 544kt of HMC in 2025 prior to suspension.
