Empire Metals Limited (LSE:EEE) has secured the Exploration Discovery of the Year Award in recognition of its Pitfield titanium project in Western Australia — a discovery now regarded as a potential cornerstone for a major future mining operation. The project has delivered a high-purity TiO₂ product and an impressive Mineral Resource Estimate, elevating Empire’s profile as an emerging force in the global titanium supply chain.
More about Empire Metals
Empire Metals Ltd is an exploration and development company advancing the commercialisation of the Pitfield Titanium Project in Western Australia. Pitfield is a discovery of remarkable scale, hosting one of the world’s largest and highest-grade titanium resources: a Mineral Resource Estimate of 2.2 billion tonnes at 5.1% TiO₂, containing 113 million tonnes of TiO₂. Mineralisation starts at surface and shows strong continuity both along strike and at depth. Notably, the current estimate covers only about 20% of the mineralised system, indicating substantial room for further expansion.
Conventional processing has already yielded a high-purity product grading 99.25% TiO₂, suitable for use in titanium sponge production or pigment manufacturing. Supported by established logistics and infrastructure, Pitfield is strategically positioned to meet rising global demand for titanium and other critical minerals.
