Details3.3.1 Nickel extraction process and nickel slag formation. Primary nickel is produced from two very different ores: sulfide ores and laterite (oxide) ores. Sulfide ores, which are generally mined from underground and often found in conjunction with copper-bearing ores, contain copper–iron sulfides in association with nickel–iron sulfides.
DetailsPrimary world nickel production in 2020 was 2430.7 kt Ni; 69% (1677.7 kt) of them came from oxidized nickel ores (laterites) and 31% from sulfides. Production-wise, 87.7% of the 1677.7 kt came from pyrometallurgical and 12.3% from hydrometallurgical processes. For a long time, Fe-Ni had a 20–40% Ni analysis, but in 2006 a new Fe-Ni quality came into …
DetailsNickel sulfide deposits contain the remaining forty percent (56 million tons). Demand for nickel in the United States is much higher than what recycled nickel can provide, so nickel is imported into the country.
