The Company

The Company [Abstract]
The Company	1. The Company Tronox Limited and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as “Tronox,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is a public limited company registered under the laws of the State of Western Australia. We are a global leader in the production and marketing of titanium bearing mineral sands and titanium dioxide (“TiO 2 2 2 We have global operations in North America, Europe, South Africa, and the Asia-Pacific region. Within our TiO 2 On April 1, 2015 (the “Alkali Transaction Date”), we completed the previously announced acquisition of 100% of the Alkali Chemicals business (“Alkali”) from FMC Corporation (“FMC”) for an aggregate purchase price of $1.65 billion in cash (the “Alkali Transaction”). See Note 2 for additional information regarding the Alkali Transaction. As a result of the Alkali Transaction, we produce natural soda ash from a mineral called trona, which we mine at two facilities we own near Green River, Wyoming. Our Wyoming facilities process the trona ore into chemically pure soda ash and specialty sodium products such as sodium bicarbonate (baking soda). We sell soda ash directly to customers in the United States, Canada and Europe and to the American Natural Soda Ash Corporation (“ANSAC”), a non-profit foreign sales association in which we and two other U.S. soda ash producers are members, for resale to customers elsewhere around the world. We use a portion of our soda ash at Green River to produce specialty sodium products such as sodium bicarbonate and sodium sesquicarbonate that have uses in food, animal feed, pharmaceutical, and medical applications. On September 25, 2011, Tronox Incorporated entered into a definitive agreement (as amended) with Exxaro Resources Limited (“Exxaro”) and certain of its affiliated companies, to acquire 74% of Exxaro’s South African mineral sands operations (the “Exxaro Transaction”). On June 15, 2012, the date of the Exxaro Transaction, Tronox Limited issued Class B ordinary shares (“Class B Shares”) to Exxaro and one of its subsidiaries in consideration for the mineral sands business, and the existing business of Tronox Incorporated was combined with the mineral sands business in an integrated series of transactions whereby Tronox Limited became the parent company. Under the terms of the Shareholder’s Deed entered into upon completion of the Exxaro Transaction, Exxaro agreed that for a three-year period after the completion of the Exxaro Transaction (the “Standstill Period”), it would not engage in any transaction or other action that would result in its beneficial ownership of the voting shares of Tronox Limited exceeding 45% of the total issued shares of Tronox Limited. In addition, except under certain circumstances, Exxaro agreed not to sell, pledge or otherwise transfer any such voting shares during the Standstill Period. After the Standstill Period, which concluded on June 14, 2015, Exxaro has agreed not to acquire any voting shares of Tronox Limited if, following such acquisition, Exxaro will have a voting interest in Tronox Limited of 50% or more unless Exxaro brings any proposal to make such an acquisition to the Board of Directors of Tronox Limited on a confidential basis. In the event an agreement regarding the proposal is not reached, Exxaro is permitted to make a takeover offer for all the shares of Tronox Limited not held by affiliates of Exxaro, subject to certain non-waivable conditions. At September 30, 2015, Exxaro held approximately 44% of the voting securities of Tronox Limited. See Note 19 for additional information regarding Exxaro transactions. Basis of Presentation The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited, and have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2014 was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. In management’s opinion, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, considered necessary for a fair statement. Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of all majority-owned subsidiary companies. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the manner and presentation in the current period. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. It is at least reasonably possible that the effect on the financial statements of a change in estimate due to one or more future confirming events could have a material effect on the financial statements. Restricted Cash At September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we had restricted cash in Australia related to outstanding letters of credit of $4 million and $3 million, respectively. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In September 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued ASU (“Accounting Standards Update”) 2015-16, Business Combinations In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-15, Interest – Imputation of Interest Interest— Imputation of Interest .

Acquisition of Alkali Chemicals

Acquisition of Alkali Chemicals Group [Abstract]
Acquisition of Alkali Chemicals Group	2. Acquisition of Alkali Chemicals Group On April 1, 2015, we acquired Alkali because it diversifies our end markets and revenue base, and increases our participation in faster growing emerging market economies. We believe it also provides us greater opportunity to utilize a portion of our U.S. tax attributes in future periods. See Note 4 for a discussion of the tax impact of the Alkali Transaction. We accounted for the Alkali Transaction under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, Business Combinations We funded the Alkali Transaction through existing cash and new debt. See Note 12 for further details of the Alkali Transaction financing. Purchase Price Allocation Valuation Consideration: Purchase price $ 1,650 Fair Value of Assets Acquired and Liabilities Assumed: Current Assets: Accounts receivable $ 147 Inventories 48 Prepaid and other assets 32 Total Current Assets 227 Property, plant and equipment (1) 767 Mineral leaseholds (2) 738 Non-compete agreement 1 Other long-term assets 3 Total Assets $ 1,736 Current Liabilities: Accounts payable 46 Accrued liabilities 28 Total Current Liabilities 74 Noncurrent Liabilities: Other 12 Total Liabilities 86 Net Assets $ 1,650 (1) The fair value of property, plant and equipment was determined using the cost approach, which estimates the replacement cost of each asset using current prices and labor costs, less estimates for physical, functional and technological obsolescence, based on the estimated useful life ranging from 5 to 38 years. (2) The fair value of mineral rights was determined using the Discounted Cash Flow (“DCF” ) method, which was based upon the present value of the estimated future cash flows for the expected life of the asset taking into account the relative risk of achieving those cash flows and the time value of money. A discount rate of 10.4% was used taking into account the risks associated with such assets. In connection with the Alkali Transaction, subject to a customary post-closing adjustment relating to working capital, we recorded a $3 million receivable which is included in "Accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts" in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. There are no contingent liabilities currently recorded in the fair value of net assets acquired as of the Alkali Transaction Date, and the fair value of net assets acquired includes accounts receivables with book value that approximates fair value. Condensed Combined Financial Information The following condensed financial information presents the resulting operations of Alkali from the Alkali Transaction Date to September 30, 2015: For the period April 1, 2015 through September 30, 2015 Net sales $ 403 Income from operations $ 46 Net income $ 35 Supplemental Pro forma financial information The following unaudited pro forma information gives effect to the Alkali Transaction as if it had occurred on January 1, 2014. The unaudited pro forma financial information reflects certain adjustments related to the acquisition, such as (1) conforming the accounting policies of Alkali to those applied by Tronox, (2) recording certain incremental expenses resulting from purchase accounting adjustments, such as incremental depreciation expense in connection with fair value adjustments to property, plant and equipment, and depletion expense in connection with fair value adjustments to mineral leaseholds, (3) to record the effect on interest expense related to borrowings in connection with the Alkali Transaction and (4) to record the related tax effects. The unaudited pro forma financial information was adjusted for the effect of certain non-recurring items as of January 1, 2014 such as the impact of transaction costs related to the Alkali Transaction of approximately $29 million, inventory step-up amortization of $9 million and $8 million of interest expense incurred on the Bridge Facility (see Note 12). The non-recurring transaction costs of $2 million and $29 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, respectively, were excluded from the unaudited supplemental pro forma information. The unaudited pro forma financial information is for illustrative purposes only and should not be relied upon as being indicative of the historical results that would have been obtained if the Alkali Transaction had actually occurred on that date, nor the results of operations in the future. In accordance with ASC 805, the supplemental pro forma results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, as if the Alkali Transaction had occurred on January 1, 2014, are as follows: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2015 2014 2015 2014 Net sales $ 575 $ 626 $ 1,772 $ 1,914 Income (loss) from operations $ (19 ) $ 36 $ (29 ) $ 41 Net income (loss) $ (52 ) $ (77 ) $ (171 ) $ (149 ) Income (loss) per share, basic and diluted $ (0.45 ) $ (0.67 ) $ (1.48 ) $ (1.31 )

Restructuring Expense

Restructuring Expense [Abstract]
Restructuring Expense	3. Restructuring Expense During September 2014, we initiated a cost improvement initiative. The initiative resulted in a reduction in our workforce by approximately 135 employees and outside contractor positions. At December 31, 2014, the remaining liability was $4 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we paid $4 million of cash related to such restructuring. No payments were made during the three months ended September 30, 2015. During the second quarter of 2015, we determined that our sodium chlorate plant in Hamilton, Mississippi would cease production in late November 2015 resulting in a reduction in our workforce of approximately 50 employees. This action resulted in a charge, consisting primarily of employee severance costs, of $2 million, which was recorded in “Restructuring expense” in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. We expect to pay the $2 million during the fourth quarter of 2015. In line with our goal of aligning production output to market requirements, during the third quarter of 2015, we decided that the operation of our Cooljarloo North Mine in Western Australia would be suspended on December 31, 2015, resulting in a reduction in our workforce of approximately 30 employees. This action resulted in a charge, consisting primarily of employee severance costs, of $3 million, which was recorded in “Restructuring expense” in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations during the three months ended September 30, 2015. We expect to pay the $3 million during the first quarter of 2016. As previously announced, we have been identifying opportunities in our TiO 2 As part of our commitment to reduce operating costs and working capital, we have commenced a global restructuring of our TiO 2 2

Income Taxes [Abstract]
Income Taxes	4. Income Taxes Our operations are conducted through our various subsidiaries in a number of countries throughout the world. We have provided for income taxes based upon the tax laws and rates in the countries in which operations are conducted and income is earned. Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2015 2014 2015 2014 Income tax provision $ (11 ) $ (41 ) $ (29 ) $ (15 ) Loss before income taxes $ (43 ) $ (49 ) $ (189 ) $ (127 ) Effective tax rate (26 )% (84 )% (15 )% (12 )% The effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 differs from the Australian statutory rate of 30% primarily due to valuation allowances, income in foreign jurisdictions taxed at rates lower than 30%, and withholding tax accruals. The tax provision for the three months ended September 30, 2015 is less than the tax provision for the three months ended September 30, 2014 primarily because of the full Netherlands valuation allowance which was established in the prior year quarter. This difference is partially offset because we recorded no tax benefit on Australian book losses due to full valuation allowances for the three months ended September 30, 2015. These Australian valuation allowances were not in place during the prior year quarter. The statutory tax rates on income earned in South Africa (28% for limited liability companies), The Netherlands (25% for corporations), and the United Kingdom (20.25% for corporations and limited liability companies and not applicable for certain limited liability partners) are lower than the Australian statutory rate of 30%. The statutory tax rate, applied against losses in the United States (35% for corporations), is higher than the Australian statutory rate of 30%. As a result of the Alkali Transaction, we expect to offset a portion of our previously existing US tax attributes with income generated by the Alkali entities. This expectation, however, does not change our overall judgement regarding the utilization of existing deferred tax assets. We continue to maintain full valuation allowances related to the total net deferred tax assets in Australia, the United States, and The Netherlands, as we cannot objectively assert that these deferred tax assets are more likely than not to be realized. Future provisions for income taxes will include no tax benefits with respect to losses incurred and tax expense only to the extent of current state tax payments and withholding tax until the valuation allowances are eliminated. Additionally, we have valuation allowances against specific tax assets in South Africa. These conclusions were reached by the application of ASC 740, Income Taxes Anadarko Litigation On January 23, 2015, Anadarko Petroleum Corp. (“Anadarko”) paid $5.2 billion, including approximately $65 million of accrued interest, pursuant to the terms of a settlement agreement with Tronox Incorporated. We did not receive any portion of the settlement amount. Instead, 88% of the $5.2 billion went to trusts and other governmental entities for the remediation of polluted sites by Kerr-McGee Corporation (“Kerr-McGee”). The remaining 12% was distributed to a tort trust to compensate individuals injured as a result of Kerr-McGee’s environmental failures. We received a private letter ruling from the U.S. Internal Revenue Service confirming that the trusts that held the claims against Anadarko are grantor trusts of Tronox Incorporated solely for federal income tax purposes. As a result, we believe we are entitled to tax deductions equal to the amount spent by the trusts to remediate environmental matters and to compensate the injured individuals. These deductions will accrue over the life of the trusts as the $5.2 billion is spent. We believe that these expenditures and the accompanying tax deductions may continue for decades. At December 31, 2014, we had recorded deferred tax assets of $2.0 billion related to the $5.2 billion of expected future tax deductions from trust expenditures. These deferred tax assets are fully offset by valuation allowances. At September 30, 2015, approximately $2.1 billion of the trust expenditures expected from the litigation proceeds have been incurred.

Loss Per Share The computation of basic and diluted loss per share for the periods indicated is as follows: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended 2015 2014 2015 2014 Numerator – Basic and Diluted: Net loss $ (54 ) $ (90 ) $ (218 ) $ (142 ) Less: Net income attributable to noncontrolling interest 6 3 10 9 Undistributed net loss (60 ) (93 ) (228 ) (151 ) Percentage allocated to ordinary shares (1) 100 % 100 % 100 % 100 % Loss available to ordinary shares $ (60 ) $ (93 ) $ (228 ) $ (151 ) Denominator – Basic and Diluted: Weighted-average ordinary shares (in thousands) 115,642 114,530 115,529 114,026 Loss per Ordinary Share (2): Basic and diluted loss per ordinary share $ (0.52 ) $ (0.82 ) $ (1.97 ) $ (1.33 ) (1) Our participating securities do not have a contractual obligation to share in losses; therefore, when we have a net loss, none of the loss is allocated to participating securities. Consequently, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the two-class method did not have an effect on our loss per ordinary share calculation, and as such, dividends paid during the year did not impact this calculation. (2) Loss per ordinary share amounts were calculated from exact, not rounded income (loss) and share information. In computing diluted loss per share under the two-class method, we considered potentially dilutive shares. Anti-dilutive shares not recognized in the diluted earnings per share calculation were as follows: September 30, 2015 September 30, 2014 Shares Average Exercise Price Shares Average Exercise Price Options 2,245,145 $ 21.13 2,691,444 $ 21.12 Series A Warrants (1) 1,306,665 $ 10.35 1,273,399 $ 11.17 Series B Warrants (1) 1,769,035 $ 11.42 1,858,353 $ 12.33 Restricted share units 1,505,081 $ 23.04 978,035 $ 22.10 (1) Series A Warrants and Series B Warrants were converted into Class A Shares at September 30, 2015 and 2014 using a rate of 5.46 and 5.26, respectively.

Debt [Abstract]
Debt	12. Debt Short-term debt consisted of the following: September 30, 2015 December 31, 2014 UBS Revolver $ 150 $ — Short-term debt (1) $ 150 $ — (1) Average effective interest rate of 3.35% during the nine months ended September 30, 2015. UBS Revolver We have a global senior secured asset-based syndicated revolving credit facility with UBS AG (“UBS”) with a maturity date of June 18, 2017 (the “UBS Revolver”). Through March 31, 2015, the UBS Revolver provided us with a committed source of capital with a principal borrowing amount of up to $300 million, subject to a borrowing base. On April 1, 2015, in connection with the Alkali Transaction, we entered into an amended and restated asset-based revolving syndicated facility agreement with UBS, which provides for up to $500 million of revolving credit lines, with a $85 million sublimit for letters of credit with a new maturity that is the earlier of the date which is five (5) years after the closing date and the date which is 3 months prior to the maturity of the Term Loan Agreement; provided that in no event shall the Revolving Maturity be earlier than June 18, 2017. Availability of revolving credit loans and letters of credit are subject to a borrowing base. Borrowings bear interest at our option, at either a base rate or an adjusted LIBOR rate and borrowings in Euros bear interest at an adjusted LIBOR rate, in each case plus an applicable margin. The base rate is defined as the greatest of (a) the Administrative Agent’s prime rate, (b) the Federal funds effective rate plus 0.50% and (c) the adjusted LIBOR rate for a one-month period plus 1.00%. The applicable margin ranges from 0.50% to 1.00% for borrowings at the base rate and from 1.50% to 2.00% for borrowings at the adjusted LIBOR rate, in each case, based on the average daily borrowing availability. On April 1, 2015, we borrowed $150 million against the UBS Revolver, which was outstanding at September 30, 2015. At December 31, 2014, there were no outstanding borrowings on the UBS Revolver. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, we had no drawdowns or repayments on the UBS Revolver. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we incurred $2 million of deferred debt issuance costs related to the UBS Revolver, which were capitalized and included in “Other long-term assets” in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at September 30, 2015. At September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, our borrowing base was $301 million and $276 million, respectively. ABSA Revolving Credit Facility We have a R1.3 billion (approximately $94 million at September 30, 2015) revolving credit facility with ABSA Bank Limited (“ABSA”) acting through its ABSA Capital Division with a maturity date of June 14, 2017 (the “ABSA Revolver”). The ABSA Revolver bears interest at (i) the base rate (defined as one month JIBAR, which is the mid-market rate for deposits in South African Rand for a period equal to the relevant period which appears on the Reuters Screen SAFEY Page alongside the caption YLD) as of 11h00 Johannesburg time on the first day of the applicable period, plus (ii) the Margin, which is 3.9%. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we had no drawdowns or repayments on the ABSA Revolver. At both September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, there were no outstanding borrowings on the ABSA Revolver. Long-term debt, net of an unamortized discount, consisted of the following: Original Principal Annual Interest Rate Maturity Date September 30 2015 December 31, 2014 Term Loan, net of unamortized discount (1) $ 1,500 Variable 3/19/2020 $ 1,458 $ 1,468 Senior Notes due 2020 $ 900 6.375 % 8/15/2020 900 900 Senior Notes due 2022 $ 600 7.50 % 3/15/2022 600 — Co-generation Unit Financing Arrangement $ 16 6.50 % 2/1/2016 1 3 Lease financing 18 22 Total borrowings 2,977 2,393 Less: Long-term debt due within one year (16 ) (18 ) Long-term debt $ 2,961 $ 2,375 (1) Average effective interest rate of 4.6% during both the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014. At September 30, 2015, the scheduled maturities of our long-term debt were as follows: Total 2015 $ 4 2016 16 2017 16 2018 16 2019 16 Thereafter 2,915 Total 2,983 Remaining accretion associated with the Term Loan (6 ) Total borrowings $ 2,977 Term Loan On April 23, 2014, we, along with our wholly owned subsidiary, Tronox Pigments (Netherlands) B.V., and certain of our subsidiaries named as guarantors, entered into a Third Amendment to the Credit and Guaranty Agreement (the “Third Agreement”) on our $1.5 billion senior secured term loan (the “Term Loan”) with the lender parties thereto and Goldman Sachs Bank USA, as administrative agent, which amends the Second Agreement. The Term Loan was issued net of an original issue discount. At September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the unamortized discount was $6 million and $7 million, respectively. During the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we made principal repayments of $4 million and $4 million, respectively, and during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 we made principal repayments of $11 million and $14 million, respectively. Senior Notes due 2020 On August 20, 2012, our wholly owned subsidiary, Tronox Finance LLC (“Tronox Finance”), completed a private placement offering of $900 million aggregate principal amount of senior notes at par value (the “Senior Notes due 2020”). The Senior Notes due 2020 bear interest semiannually at a rate equal to 6.375%, and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior, unsecured basis by us and certain of our subsidiaries. The Senior Notes due 2020 were initially offered to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and outside the United States to non-U.S. persons pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act. On September 17, 2013, Tronox Finance issued $900 million in aggregate principal amount of registered 6.375% Senior Notes due 2020 in exchange for its then existing $900 million in aggregate principal amount of its 6.375% Senior Notes due 2020. The Senior Notes due 2020 are guaranteed by Tronox and certain of its subsidiaries. See Note 21. Senior Notes due 2022 On March 6, 2015, Evolution Escrow Issuer LLC (“Evolution”), a special purpose limited liability company organized under the laws of Delaware, was formed. Evolution was wholly owned by Stichting Evolution Escrow, a Dutch foundation not affiliated with the Company. On March 19, 2015, Evolution closed an offering of $600 million aggregate principal amount of its 7.50% Senior Notes due 2022 (the “Senior Notes due 2022”). The Senior Notes due 2022 were offered and sold by Evolution in reliance on an exemption pursuant to Rule 144A and Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Senior Notes due 2022 were issued under an Indenture, dated as of March 19, 2015 (the “Indenture”), between Evolution and Wilmington Trust, National Association (the “Trustee”). On April 1, 2015, in connection with the Alkali Transaction, Evolution merged with and into Tronox Finance, Tronox Finance assumed the obligations of Evolution under the Indenture and the Senior Notes due 2022, and the proceeds from the offering were released to us to partially pay the purchase price for the Alkali Transaction. We and certain of our subsidiaries entered into a supplemental indenture (the “First Supplemental Indenture”), by and among us, Tronox Finance, the guarantors party thereto, and the Trustee, pursuant to which we and such subsidiaries became guarantors of the Senior Notes due 2022 under the Indenture. The Senior Notes due 2022 have not been registered under the Securities Act, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements. Debt issuance costs related to the Senior Notes due 2022 of $13 million, were capitalized and included in “Other long-term assets” in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at September 30, 2015. The Indenture and the Senior Notes due 2022 provide, among other things, that the Senior Notes due 2022 are senior unsecured obligations of Tronox Finance. Interest is payable on March 15 and September 15 of each year beginning on September 15, 2015 until their maturity date of March 15, 2022. The terms of the Indenture, among other things, limit, in certain circumstances, the ability of us to: incur certain additional indebtedness and issue preferred stock; make certain dividends, distributions, investments and other restricted payments; sell certain assets; incur liens; agree to any restrictions on the ability of certain subsidiaries to make payments to the Company; consolidate or merge with or into, or sell substantially all of our assets to, another person; enter into transactions with affiliates; and enter into new lines of business. Lease Financing We have capital lease obligations in South Africa, which are payable through 2031 at a weighted average interest rate of approximately 14%. At September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, such obligations had a net book value of assets recorded under capital leases aggregating $15 million and $20 million, respectively. During each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we made principal payments of less than $1 million. Bridge Facility In connection with the Alkali Transaction, we entered into a $600 million senior unsecured bridge facility (the “Bridge Facility”). The Bridge Facility was not utilized and terminated with the completion of the Alkali Transaction. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we incurred $8 million of financing fees related to the Bridge Facility, which were included in “Interest and debt expense, net” in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Fair Value Our debt is recorded at historical amounts. At September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the fair value of the Term Loan was $1.3 billion and $1.5 billion, respectively. At September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the fair value of the Senior Notes due 2020 was $569 million and $903 million, respectively. At September 30, 2015, the fair value of the Senior Notes due 2022 was $386 million. We determined the fair value of the Term Loan, the Senior Notes due 2020 and the Senior Notes due 2022 using quoted market prices. The fair value hierarchy for the Term Loan, the Senior Notes due 2020 and the Senior Notes due 2022 is a Level 1 input. Balances outstanding under our UBS Revolver are carried at contracted amounts, which approximate fair value based on the short term nature of the borrowing and the variable interest rate. The fair value hierarchy for our UBS Revolver is a Level 2 input. Debt Covenants At September 30, 2015, we had financial covenants in the UBS Revolver, the ABSA Revolver and the Term Loan; however, only the ABSA Revolver had a financial maintenance covenant that applies to local operations and only when the ABSA Revolver is drawn upon. The Term Loan and the UBS Revolver are subject to an intercreditor agreement pursuant to which the lenders’ respective rights and interests in the security are set forth. We were in compliance with all our financial covenants as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015. Interest and Debt Expense, Net Interest and debt expense, net consisted of the following: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2015 2014 2015 2014 Interest on debt $ 43 $ 30 $ 117 $ 93 Amortization of deferred debt issuance costs and discounts on debt 3 2 8 7 Bridge Facility — — 8 — Other 1 2 3 3 Capitalized interest (2 ) — (5 ) (2 ) Total interest and debt expense, net $ 45 $ 34 $ 131 $ 101 In connection with obtaining debt, we incurred debt issuance costs, which are being amortized through the respective maturity dates using the effective interest method. At September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we had $52 million and $44 million, respectively, of deferred debt issuance costs, which were recorded in “Other long-term assets” in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The following table presents a summary of activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2015: Number of Shares Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value Outstanding, January 1, 2015 635,295 $ 22.82 Granted 66,108 22.60 Vested (175,506 ) 22.10 Forfeited (54,486 ) 27.53 Outstanding, September 30, 2015 471,411 $ 22.52 Expected to vest, September 30, 2015 470,021 $ 22.52 At September 30, 2015, there was $2 million of unrecognized compensation expense related to nonvested restricted shares, adjusted for estimated forfeitures, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.2 years. The weighted-average grant-date fair value of restricted shares granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 was $22.60 per share and $22.17 per share, respectively. The total fair value of restricted shares that vested during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 was $4 million. Restricted Share Units (“RSUs”) During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we granted RSUs which have time and/or performance conditions. Both the time-based awards and the performance-based awards are classified as equity awards. The time-based awards vest ratably over a three-year period, and are valued at the weighted average grant date fair value. The performance-based awards cliff vest at the end of the three years. Included in the performance-based awards are RSUs for which vesting is determined by a Total Stockholder Return (“TSR”) calculation over the applicable measurement period. The TSR metric is considered a market condition for which we use a Monte Carlo simulation to determine the grant date fair value. Number of Shares Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value Outstanding, January 1, 2015 875,776 $ 22.17 Granted 948,487 23.47 Vested (263,626 ) 21.69 Forfeited (55,556 ) 22.91 Outstanding, September 30, 2015 1,505,081 $ 23.04 Expected to vest, September 30, 2015 1,464,423 $ 23.03 At September 30, 2015, there was $20 million of unrecognized compensation expense related to nonvested RSUs, adjusted for estimated forfeitures, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.9 years. The weighted-average grant-date fair value of restricted share units granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 was $23.47 per share and $22.36 per share, respectively. The total fair value of RSUs that vested during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 was $6 million. Options During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we granted options to purchase Class A Shares, which vest ratably over a three-year period and have a ten-year term. The following table presents a summary of activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2015: Number of Options Weighted Average Exercise Price Weighted Average Contractual Life (years) Intrinsic Value Outstanding, January 1, 2015 2,560,875 $ 21.14 7.88 $ 8 Granted 2,380 22.69 Exercised (141,473 ) 19.37 Forfeited (58,659 ) 21.89 Expired (117,978 ) 22.99 Outstanding, September 30, 2015 2,245,145 $ 21.13 7.49 $ — Expected to vest, September 30, 2015 908,291 $ 20.79 7.96 $ — Exercisable, September 30, 2015 1,324,033 $ 21.37 7.17 $ — The aggregate intrinsic values in the table represent the total pre-tax intrinsic value (the difference between our share price at the indicated dates and the options’ exercise price, multiplied by the number of in-the-money options) that would have been received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their in-the-money options at the end of the period. The amount will change based on the fair market value of our stock. There were no options exercised during the three months ended September 30, 2015. The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 was less than $1 million. The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2014 was less than $1 million and $1 million, respectively. We issue new shares upon the exercise of options. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we received $3 million in cash for the exercise of stock options. At September 30, 2015, unrecognized compensation expense related to options, adjusted for estimated forfeitures, was $4 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.1 years. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we granted 2,380 and 915,988 options, respectively, with a weighted average grant date fair value of $7.04 and $8.19, respectively. Fair value is determined on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model and is recognized in earnings on a straight-line basis over the employee service period of three years, which is the vesting period. The assumptions used in the Black-Scholes option-pricing model on the grant date were as follows: January 5, 2015 Number of options granted 2,380 Fair market value and exercise price $ 22.69 Risk-free interest rate 1.83 % Expected dividend yield 4.41 % Expected volatility 48 % Maturity (years) 10 Expected term (years) 6 Per-unit fair value of options granted $ 7.04 The fair value is based on the closing price of our Class A Shares on the grant date. The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury Strips available with a maturity period consistent with the expected life assumption. The expected volatility assumption is based on historical price movements of our peer group. T-Bucks Employee Participation Plan (“T-Bucks EPP”) During 2012, we established the T-Bucks EPP for the benefit of certain qualifying employees of our South African subsidiaries. We funded the T-Bucks Trust (the “Trust”) with R124 million (approximately $15 million), which was used to acquire Class A Shares. Additional contributions may be made in the future at the discretion of the Board. The T-Bucks EPP is classified as an equity-settled shared-based payment plan, whereby participants were awarded share units in the Trust, which entitles them to receive Class A Shares upon completion of the vesting period on May 31, 2017. Participants are entitled to receive dividends on the shares during the vesting period. Forfeited shares are retained by the Trust, and are allocated to future participants. Compensation costs are recognized over the vesting period using the straight-line method. During 2012, the Trust purchased 548,234 Class A Shares at $25.79 per share, which was the fair value on the date of purchase. The balance at both September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was 548,234 shares. Long-Term Incentive Plan We have a long-term incentive plan (the “LTIP”) for the benefit of certain qualifying employees of Tronox subsidiaries in South Africa and Australia. The LTIP is classified as a cash settled compensation plan, and is re-measured to fair value at each reporting date. At September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the LTIP plan liability was less than $1 million and $1 million, respectively.

Pension and Other Postretirement Healthcare Benefits [Abstract]
Pension and Other Postretirement Healthcare Benefits	18. Pension and Other Postretirement Healthcare Benefits We sponsor a noncontributory defined benefit retirement plan (qualified) in the United States, a defined benefit retirement plan in The Netherlands, a collective defined contribution plan in The Netherlands, and a South Africa postretirement healthcare plan. During the fourth quarter of 2014, our benefit committee approved to end future benefit accruals under the TDF-Botlek Pension Fund Foundation (“The Netherlands DB plan”) and replaced it with a new collective contribution plan (the “CDC plan”). As a result of this decision, effective from January 1, 2015, benefit accruals commenced under the CDC plan while The Netherlands DB plan became effectively “frozen”. Under the CDC plan, employees earn benefits based on their pensionable salaries each year determined using a career average benefit formula. We contribute 19.8% of these benefits and the employees contribute 4% into a pooled fund administered by the industrywide Pension Fund for Graphical Industry (“PBG”). Our obligation under this new plan is limited to the fixed percentage contribution we make each year. That is, investment risks, mortality risks and other actuarial risks typically associated with a defined benefit plan are borne by the employees. Additionally, the employees are entitled to any returns generated from the investment activities of the fund. The CDC plan is considered a defined benefit plan for accounting purposes. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, we contributed $1 million and $3 million, respectively, into the pooled fund, which was recognized in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. The components of net periodic cost associated with the U.S., The Netherlands DB plan and postretirement plans recognized in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations were as follows: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2015 2014 2015 2014 Net periodic cost: Service cost $ — $ 1 $ — $ 4 Interest cost 4 5 15 16 Expected return on plan assets (5 ) (6 ) (17 ) (18 ) Net amortization of actuarial loss and prior service credit 1 — 3 — Total net periodic cost $ — $ — $ 1 $ 2 The components of net periodic cost associated with the postretirement healthcare plans for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 were less than $1 million, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 were $1 million and $2 million, respectively. Tronox Alkali Qualified Retirement Plan As part of the Alkali Transaction, we established the Tronox Alkali Corporation Union Retirement Plan (the “Tronox Alkali Qualified Plan”) to cover eligible employees of Tronox Alkali Corporation effective April 1, 2015. The plan is open to union employees of Alkali. The Tronox Alkali Qualified Plan is the same as the FMC Corporation Employees’ Retirement Program Part II Union Hourly Employees’ Retirement Plan provided to eligible participants for services prior to the Alkali Transaction Date. These two plans are aggregated to form the full pension for eligible participants. Under the Tronox Alkali Qualified Plan, each eligible employee will automatically become a participant upon completion one year of credited services. Retirement benefits under this plan are calculated based on the total years of service of an eligible participant, multiplied by a specified benefit rate in effect at the termination of the plan participant’s years of service. FMC will be responsible for the portion of this total benefit accrued to eligible participants for all the years of service up to March 31, 2015, and we will be responsible for the portion of the total benefit accrued to participants from April 1, 2015 up to the date of termination of a participant’s years of service. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, we recorded $2 million and $3 million, respectively, of pension expense, which was recorded in “Cost of goods sold” in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. We also contributed $2 million to this plan resulting in an underfunded status of $1 million as of September 30, 2015, which is presented in the “Pension and postretirement healthcare benefits” in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Related Parties	19. Related Parties Exxaro We had service level agreements with Exxaro for services such as research and development and tax preparation, which expired during 2015, as well as information technology services, which expired during 2014. Such service level agreements amounted to less than $1 million of expense during the both three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $2 million of expense during both the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Additionally, we have a professional service agreement with Exxaro related to the Fairbreeze construction project. During both the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we paid less than $1 million and during both the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we paid $2 million to Exxaro, which was capitalized in “Property, plant and equipment, net” on our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. At both September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we had less than $1 million of related party payables, which were recorded in “Accounts payable” on our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Agreements and Transactions with Affiliates We hold a membership in ANSAC, which is responsible for promoting and increasing the use and sale of soda ash and other refined or processed sodium products produced. Certain sales and marketing costs incurred by ANSAC are charged directly to us. Selling, general and administrative expenses, which include amounts charged to us by ANSAC principally consisting of salaries, benefits, office supplies, professional fees, travel, rent and certain other costs, and amounted to $1 million and $2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, respectively. These transactions do not necessarily represent arm's length transactions and may not represent all costs if Alkali operated on a stand-alone basis. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, we recorded net sales to ANSAC of $63 million and $139 million, respectively. At September 30, 2015, we had $66 million of related party receivable from ANSAC and $1 million of related party payables to ANSAC, which were recorded in "Accounts receivable" and “Accounts payable”, respectively, on our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Segment Information [Abstract]
Segment Information	20. Segment Information The reportable segments presented below represent our operating segments for which separate financial information is available and which is utilized on a regular basis by our Chief Executive Officer, who is our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) to assess performance and to allocate resources. Prior to the Alkali Transaction, we had two operating and reportable segments, Mineral Sands and Pigment, based on the way the management team was organized and our CODM monitored performance, aligned strategies, and allocated resources. As a result of the increased interdependency between the Mineral Sands and Pigment businesses and related organizational changes, our CODM determined that it was better to review the Mineral Sands and Pigment businesses, along with our electrolytic business, as a combined one, TiO 2 2 Our TiO 2 · exploration, mining, and beneficiation of mineral sands deposits · production of titanium feedstock (including chloride slag, slag fines, and rutile), pig iron, and zircon · production and marketing of TiO 2 · electrolytic manganese dioxide manufacturing and marketing Our Alkali operating segment includes the mining of trona ore for the production from trona of natural soda ash and its derivatives: sodium bicarbonate, sodium sesquicarbonate and caustic soda (collectively referred to as “alkali-products”). Segment performance is evaluated based on segment operating income (loss), which represents the results of segment operations before unallocated costs, such as general corporate expenses not identified to a specific segment, interest expense, other income (expense), and income tax expense or benefit.

following: • In the unaudited guarantor condensed consolidating financial statements previously issued, two subsidiaries which were incorrectly classified as “Non-guarantor subsidiaries” have been reclassified to “Guarantor Subsidiaries” in the revised unaudited guarantor condensed consolidating financial statements. • Certain amounts within the guarantor condensed consolidating statements of comprehensive income (loss) were revised to primarily reflect the proportionate share of cumulative translation adjustments between the Parent Company and Eliminations columns. These revisions, which we determined are not material to our prior year condensed financial statements or consolidated financial statements based on quantitative and qualitative considerations, did not affect our consolidated financial position, consolidated results of operations or consolidated cash flows.

The Company [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited, and have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2014 was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. In management’s opinion, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, considered necessary for a fair statement. Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of all majority-owned subsidiary companies. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the manner and presentation in the current period. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. It is at least reasonably possible that the effect on the financial statements of a change in estimate due to one or more future confirming events could have a material effect on the financial statements.

(2) The fair value of mineral rights was determined using the Discounted Cash Flow (“DCF” ) method, which was based upon the present value of the estimated future cash flows for the expected life of the asset taking into account the relative risk of achieving those cash flows and the time value of money. A discount rate of 10.4% was used taking into account the risks associated with such assets.

Loss Per Share [Abstract]
Computation of Basic and Diluted Loss per Share	The computation of basic and diluted loss per share for the periods indicated is as follows: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended 2015 2014 2015 2014 Numerator – Basic and Diluted: Net loss $ (54 ) $ (90 ) $ (218 ) $ (142 ) Less: Net income attributable to noncontrolling interest 6 3 10 9 Undistributed net loss (60 ) (93 ) (228 ) (151 ) Percentage allocated to ordinary shares (1) 100 % 100 % 100 % 100 % Loss available to ordinary shares $ (60 ) $ (93 ) $ (228 ) $ (151 ) Denominator – Basic and Diluted: Weighted-average ordinary shares (in thousands) 115,642 114,530 115,529 114,026 Loss per Ordinary Share (2): Basic and diluted loss per ordinary share $ (0.52 ) $ (0.82 ) $ (1.97 ) $ (1.33 ) (1) Our participating securities do not have a contractual obligation to share in losses; therefore, when we have a net loss, none of the loss is allocated to participating securities. Consequently, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the two-class method did not have an effect on our loss per ordinary share calculation, and as such, dividends paid during the year did not impact this calculation. (2) Loss per ordinary share amounts were calculated from exact, not rounded income (loss) and share information.
Anti-Dilutive Shares Not Recognized in Diluted Earnings per Share Calculation	In computing diluted loss per share under the two-class method, we considered potentially dilutive shares. Anti-dilutive shares not recognized in the diluted earnings per share calculation were as follows: September 30, 2015 September 30, 2014 Shares Average Exercise Price Shares Average Exercise Price Options 2,245,145 $ 21.13 2,691,444 $ 21.12 Series A Warrants (1) 1,306,665 $ 10.35 1,273,399 $ 11.17 Series B Warrants (1) 1,769,035 $ 11.42 1,858,353 $ 12.33 Restricted share units 1,505,081 $ 23.04 978,035 $ 22.10 (1) Series A Warrants and Series B Warrants were converted into Class A Shares at September 30, 2015 and 2014 using a rate of 5.46 and 5.26, respectively.

[1]	The fair value of property, plant and equipment was determined using the cost approach, which estimates the replacement cost of each asset using current prices and labor costs, less estimates for physical, functional and technological obsolescence, based on the estimated useful life ranging from 5 to 38 years.
[2]	The fair value of mineral rights was determined using the Discounted Cash Flow ("DCF" ) method, which was based upon the present value of the estimated future cash flows for the expected life of the asset taking into account the relative risk of achieving those cash flows and the time value of money. A discount rate of 10.4% was used taking into account the risks associated with such assets.
