— Laterite ores account for >60% of the world's nickel resources. This ore contains considerable amount of scandium, a strategic material in increasingly high demand in various industries.Here, an innovative two-step process was developed in which scandium is first concentrated in a slag phase using carbothermic reduction and then is …
— The reduction in the serpentine content from 66 pct (wt pct) to 1 wt pct in NCP ore indicates that nearly all of the nickel associated with this phase was extracted. There was also no unreacted NiO, CoO or MgO as their oxides or associated with unreacted serpentine detected in the solid residue after the sulfation-roasting-leaching …
— A characteristic feature of serpentine oxidized nickel ores (ONO) of the Serov deposit (≈ 1 wt.% Ni) is the increased content of iron and magnesium. The main nickel-containing phases are lizardite, antigorite, clinochlore and iron oxides with the nickel content varying from 1.6 to 9.2 wt.%.Heap (percolation) leaching with aqueous H2SO4 …
— The total nickel reserves in the world are estimated to be approximately 89 million tons, of which 60% corresponds to laterites ore deposits and 40% to sulphide ore deposits (Alvial-Hein et al., 2021, Meshram et al., 2019).In recent years, high grade nickel sulfide ore is gradually exhausted due to excessive mining, while low grade laterite …
Metal ores are naturally occurring rocks that contain metals or metal compounds in sufficient amounts to make it worthwhile extracting them. The method used to extract a given metal from its ore ...
— The carbothermic reduction roasting followed by ammoniacal leaching of a Ni-laterite ore from Bajaur (Pakistan) has been studied first time for its potential exploitation via the Caron process. The use of fuel oil as reductant can be costly in Pakistan, therefore, plenty available coal was employed in this study.
— The extraction of Ni from sulfide ores is much simpler relative to laterites and is dominated by pyrometallurgical processing. This typically involves comminution and flotation to produce a nickel ...
— Hydrometallurgical processes involve the use of aqueous solutions and chemical reactions to extract nickel from the ore. The two primary hydrometallurgical methods used for nickel extraction are: 1) High-Pressure Acid Leaching (HPAL): HPAL is a widely used method for extracting nickel from laterite ores, which are low-grade and high …
— An investigation on the reduction roasting and ammonia leach methods of treating lateritic nickel ore (Caron process showed satisfactory extractions for limonitic ore, i.e., material high in iron oxides and low in silicates) is reported . The Caron leaching method works with oxide laterites ("limonite") that can tolerate some silicate ...
The extraction of nickel from ore follows much the same route as copper, and indeed, in a number of cases, similar processes and equipment are used. The major differences in equipment are the use of higher-temperature refractories and the increased cooling required to accommodate the …
