Jan 01, 2021 Jan 01, 2021 The lateritic nickel ore in this work was from Sulawesi Island, Indonesia. The chemical composition of limonite and saprolite ore in this work is listed in Table 1. Limonite has lower nickel content than saprolite. Nevertheless, its iron content is higher. The binary basicity (MgO/SiO 2) of limonite and saprolite is 0.14 and 0.41, respectively. Higher basicity in saprolite ore is due to its

Nickel laterites are a very important type of nickel ore deposit. They are growing to become the most important source of nickel metal for world demand (currently second to sulfide nickel ore deposits). Nickel laterites are generally mined via open cut mining methods. Nickel is extracted from the ore by a variety of process routes

The laterite ores constitute nearly 80% of the total nickel reserves and they can be the potential source of nickel in the event of the depletion or degradation of the sulphide ores. However, the cost associated with the conventional processing of the laterite ores forbids its technological development

approximately 5 million tons of ore with a grade of over 1% nickel. In the literature, studies have been reported on the dissolution of lateritic nickel ores in hydrochloric acid media and the extraction of nickel from pregnant solutions; however, there is no study on the beneficiation of the lateritic nickel ore at Kara am [20, 21, 22, 23, 24

Jul 07, 2021 In this work, the selective reduction of lateritic nickel ore was carried out using sodium sulfate, sodium carbonate, and sodium chloride as additives. The 5 wt% of anthracite coal, which contains 60.35% of fixed carbon and 1.9% of sulfur, was used as a reductant. All raw materials were mixed homogenously prior to the pelletization process into 10–15 mm of diameter. The reduction

Nickel laterite ores account for over 60% of global nickel supply. They are the product of intensive deep weathering of serpentinites under humid tropical conditions. Nickel is concentrated to over 1.0 wt% and is hosted in a variety of secondary oxides, hydrous Mg silicates and smectites. The formation, mineralogy and grade of the deposits are
