Australian mining firm Base Resources recorded a 26.1 percent jump in the value of titanium exports from its Kwale mine to Sh7 billion in the quarter ended June, helped by higher prices of the commodity in the international markets.

Sales in the same period last year stood at Sh5.5 billion, with the higher selling prices more than compensating for reduced production and shipments.
