Kyanite Mining Corporation is the world’s largest and oldest producer and supplier of the industrial mineral kyanite and its calcined derivative, Mullite. The company has been family owned and operated since the 1940s and has remained laser focused on its core business ever since. With millions of tons of reserves, tens of thousands of tons of finished product inventory, and with the capacity to mine, purify, process, and package well over a hundred thousand tons every year, KMC stands ready to meet the needs of its global customer base well into the future. You can trust us to never let you down, and we have the record of accomplishment to prove it. Ore Bodies & Processing Facilities
Kyanite Mining Corporation is built around two separate ore bodies and four separate processing facilities. These assets give the company the ability to produce close to 150,000 tons of highly purified Kyanite every year (and to turn 25,000 tons of that into high quality Mullite). The key to the operation is a state-of-the-art proprietary beneficiation process that takes as its feed a Kyanite-quartzite ore of widely varying grades/impurity loads. It then turns that material into a highly purified, consistent final product that refractory engineers the world over has come to rely on. Family Owned and Operated for Generations
