    The pre-K-edge feature of Ti and Fe XANES of ilmenite FeTiO<inf>3</inf> were investigated. The electronic structure of FeTiO<inf>3</inf> was examined based on the partial density of electronic state distribution on both local and nonlocal atoms. A strong contribution of nonlocal metal-metal intervalence electronic states of Ti and Fe pre-K-edge was observed in X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) measurement. This observation agrees well with the calculated local state density. The nonlocal excitation transitions in the pre-edge feature contribute to local pre-K-edge at both Ti and Fe. Ti pre-K-edge consists of highly hybridized Ti-3d(t<inf>2g</inf>) with a small part of dipole-allowed 4p and a small 4s density transition state feature which is predominated by nonlocal of Fe-3d mixed with 4p state delocalized via O-2p as the main component peak. The peak feature at Ti-3d(e<inf>g</inf>) energy state is assigned to hybridization of Ti-3d(e<inf>g</inf>) and Ti-4p state contributed with nonlocal of the hybridized Fe-sp and the Ti-pd state. Fe pre-K-edge shows two main prominent transition peaks of hybridized Fe-pd state and the delocalized local Fe-sp with nonlocal Ti-3d(t<inf>2g</inf>) and 4p mixing states centered at 7112.38 and 7116.48 eV, respectively. The local and nonlocal excited transition energy states and density of both Ti pre-K-edge and Fe pre-K-edge features are corresponded with each other through the O-2p state transition pathway.

    Active-ilmenite powder derived from natural ilmenite sand was prepared by the ball milling process with acid-solution and Deionized (DI) water. Morphology and particle size of active-ilmenite product in acid/DI-assisted ball milling process were monitored by field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM). Surface atomic component and chemical bonding were investigated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Meanwhile, bulk chemical oxidation and fine structure of active-ilmenite were studied by X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) and extended X-ray absorption ne-structure spectroscopy (EXAFS) to confirm the oxidation state and local active species structure at surface. Active-ilmenite by acid-assisted ball milling process is a distinctive method for the preparation of active-ilmenite product with high active surface. Moreover, the distortion of TiO <inf>6</inf> and FeO <inf>6</inf> octahedral cluster on the sample surface was detected in all milled samples with acid-assisted ball milling process. The presence of Fe <sup>2+</sup> , Fe <sup>3+</sup> ions and miniature sulfate was also detected on the sample surface by milled product with acid-assisted method.

    In this work activated ilmenite nanoparticles were prepared by chemical-assisted in mechanical ball-milling process from ilmenite ore as starting raw material. The effect of milling process on their phase composition, particle size, surface morphology and local structure were investigated. Phase identification and crystalline structure of ilmenite mineral, milled samples and subsequent leached residues were characterized by x-ray diffraction (XRD). Meanwhile, the distorted octahedral structure and the oxidation state of relevant elements in ilmenite ore and activated ilmenite obtained by different process conditions were analyzed by x-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS). Particle size and morphologies of the samples were monitored by field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM). Three dominant peaks of TiO2 rutile, FeTiO<inf>3</inf>, and Fe<inf>2</inf>TiO<inf>4</inf> are obviously adulterated in XRD patterns after mechanical milling with water and acid solution when comparing to precursor mineral. However, the contaminated phase of FeTiO3 and Fe<inf>2</inf>TiO<inf>4</inf> was readily decreased by acid-assisted mechanical ball-milling. The enhancement in leaching process of ilmenite residue after milling can be obtained with sulfuric acid. This result suggests that iron contaminated phase could be leached from the sample resulting to the decrease in Fe environment around Ti atom.
