Exports of titanium minerals fell 62.9 percent in the three months to September amid reduced production and shipment from the Kwale-based operation owned by Base Titanium.
The value of the minerals — ilmenite, rutile and zircon — sold in the period stood at $23.1 million (Sh3.5 billion) compared to $62.4 million (Sh9.4 billion) a year earlier using current exchange rates.
