Rio Tinto Iron and Titanium

Rio Tinto Iron and Titanium (RTIT) Quebec Operations have been processing ore from northern Quebec for more than 70 years. They are a world leading producer of high-grade titanium dioxide feedstock, a product commonly used as a pigment to whiten a range of products such as paint, textiles and paper. They also produce iron and steel used in specialised applications such as the automotive industry and wind turbines.

Established in Sorel-Tracy since 1950, Rio Tinto Iron and Titanium Quebec Operations is a leading manufacturer of feedstocks for the titanium dioxide markets, supplying 19% of global demand. We’re the world leader in the production of high-purity metal powders and pig iron and are currently commissioning the first scandium plant in North America—and the first green scandium plant in the world.
