Summary:Currently there is a need in affordable and accessible materials with specific physical and chemical properties. Al- and Ti-minerals are excellent test objects for correlation between structure and physical properties of mineral. For example, corundum and ilmenite are related to the same structural type (rhombohedral lattice R3) and possess various physical properties. With the help of modern equipment we studied titanium- and aluminum-containing concentrates of natural raw and also products of various kinds of influences on them, which showed signs of nanostructuring. We observed methods of directional change of physical and chemical characteristics of Al- and Ti-minerals and creation of new commercial products.
