TitleCanadian V and Ti Occurrences
AbstractVanadium (V) and titanium (Ti), strategic metals of the future which are intimately associated in nature, are found throughout Canada in a wide variety of forms and settings. Natural hosts for V and Ti deposits are magnetite and/or ilmenite-rich igneous rocks such as anorthosite complexes and layered intrusions, sedimentary rocks including heavy mineral placers, coal and phosphate rock, hydrothermally altered and metamorphic rocks, and bauxite (aluminium-rich residually weathered) deposits.
These metals are also found in previously processed oil residues and ashes, and in iron slag. They are also recovered from the recycling of used catalysts.

TitleCanadian Mineral Deposits
AbstractMineral deposits are natural accumulations of one or more useful minerals that may provide society with metallic or non-metallic raw materials. The Geological Survey of Canada has been compiling databases for major metallic mineral deposits on Canada-wide and world-wide scale over a three decade period. The most recent compilation was enabled by industry-sponsored World Map and World Minerals Geoscience Database Projects. Four Canadian thematic databases for uranium-thorium, vanadium-titanium, lode gold, and molybdenum occurrences are now available On-Line.
