Rutile and apatite: Useful prospecting guides for porphyry …
Rutile occurs as the only Ti-mineral in the quartz-sericite zone, is dominant in the biotite-orthoclase zone, and is generally found in the inner fringes of the chlorite-epidote zone. It forms in these zones mainly as a result of the destruction of sphene, but also from biotite and hornblende.

Titanium (Ti) Ore | Minerals, Formation, Occurrence, Deposits
Chemical Composition: Titanium (Ti): Titanium is the main element in titanium ore and is typically present as titanium dioxide (TiO2) in various mineral forms, such as ilmenite, rutile, and leucoxene. The titanium content in titanium ore can range from less than 30% to over 60%, depending on the type of ore.
