Rutile is a mineral composed primarily of titanium dioxide (TiO2).

Rutile is the most common natural form of TiO2. Other rarer polymorphs of TiO2 are known including anatase, and brookite.

Rutile has one of the highest refractive indices at visible wavelengths of any known crystal and also exhibits a particularly large birefringence and high dispersion. Owing to these properties, it is useful for the manufacture of certain optical elements, especially polarization optics, for longer visible and infrared wavelengths up to about 4.5 μm.

Natural rutile may contain up to 10% iron and significant amounts of niobium and tantalum. (wikipedia)
