Petrochemical and physical characterizations of detrital rutiles from Balikumbat area, Cameroon: Implication for Titanium exploration

The Balikumbat area is located within the Mount Bamenda, Cameroon. The area hosts a significant quantity of undocumented coarse-grained detrital rutiles, and It is made-up of rhyolites, granites, and banded gneisses. The rutiles grains are zoned, the core is yellowish-brown and composed mainly of pu...
