Chief Executive Officer , Simon Finnis explained : “ Mineral Deposits Ltd ( MDL ) signed an agreement with ERAMET , a large industrial company with an ilmenite smelter in Norway , as a joint venture partner .
“ MDL then merged the Grande Côte project into this joint venture , forming the company , TiZir Limited which now owns the smelter in Norway and 90 percent of the project here in Senegal .
“ Now that the construction effort is over we can look towards producing what some people have reported as six percent of the world ’ s mineral sands products from this Grande Côte mine .”
