Abstract
The association of rutile and ilmenite as separate individuals is not unusual as a product of igneous rocks, of some pegmatites and certain high temperature veins, and of some contact metamorphic deposits. Mechanical mixtures of the two minerals, representing approximately simultaneous crystallization, have been less frequently recorded. This statement is limited to primary occurrences, and does not include alterations of the one mineral into the other.
