Base Titanium, the firm mining titanium minerals in Kwale County, saw its sales drop by 6.4 percent to Sh7.96 billion in the quarter that ended December as exports declined.

The revenue declined from Sh8.51 billion recorded in a similar quarter a year earlier, reflecting the impact of a reduction in the quantity of exported minerals ilmenite and zircon.
