  Nickel laterites; a review - GeoScienceWorld

  The physical and chemical nature of a nickel laterite deposit is a function of many factors, including the composition of the parent rock, the tectonic setting, climate, topography (specifically, laterite morphology), and drainage. Nickel laterite ore is extracted using both selective and bulk mining methods in open cast mining operations.

  HOME | CMB WEBSITE

  CMB currently operates the open pit mines of Foungbesso and Moyango. These are some of the richest nickel laterite deposits in the world, with a lifespan of over 20 years. The pits are shallow (20-30 meters) and the mining process is entirely mechanical (without the use of explosives, chemicals or hazardous materials), allowing for safe mining with a minimal …
