This is due to the rebound of Earth's crust and mantle - increasing in a northeasterly direction across the Great Lakes region - since melting of the last ice sheet.
Titanium is one of the most naturally plentiful ores in the earth's crust and it is also easily recyclable.
The Earth's crust is constantly moving, both vertically and horizontally, at rates of up to several inches a year.

As the Earth's crust began to expand and erode, heat and pressure pushed the solid minerals up to the Earth's surface which formed colossal rock beds.
Batholiths are formed either as one large mass or many smaller masses at great depths in the earth's crust and are exposed at the surface only after considerable erosion of the overlying mountain mass.
The Earth's crust is divided into about 12 major "plates" which are constantly shifting, producing earthquakes and volcanic activity on every continent.

The Earth's crust, unaccustomed to the load of the volcano, subsides greatly during this stage--as much as 3 mm per year using current subsidence rates from the Big Island of Hawai`i as an guide.

Variations in electrical impedance of the earth's crust to naturally occurring electromagnetic waves are calculated and mapped based on surface measurements of preferably both the magnetic and electric fields.
A generalized regional model of the earth's crust that represents crustal structure using layers having different assumed seismic velocities.
Heavy metals are natural constituents of the Earth's crust and are present in varying concentrations in all ecosystems.
