Processing Startup for Nickel in New Caledonia
Ferronickel smelter planned at Koniambo in New Caledonia, with commissioning targeted for 2009/2010.
Nickel production
Nickel is mined from the earth using techniques like open-pit or underground mining. This process involves extracting nickel ore, which is a mixture of different minerals that contain nickel. The extracted nickel ore undergoes processing to isolate the nickel metal from other elements present in it. This processed nickel serves as a raw material for various industrial applications. Processed nickel is used to produce stainless steel and battery components, among other products. Its properties make it an essential c...
