I checked the figures yesterday, and this showed up:

Ilmenite is the most important ore of titanium
Russia is not even in the list.

I think, the difference is "Production of Titanium" and "The most important ore of titanium", or so to say, the production of Titanium isn't the relevant item, though, where to find the Ore. Production can (in principle) be done everywhere, bla bla Technology, etc. Correct me, when I am wrong.

This link neither lists Russia: Titanium Minerals Worldwide by country
