1. Introduction. To date, preconcentration of complex, low grade Ni laterite ores poses considerable challenges. In our previous paper (Quast et al., 2015) a review of publically available literature concerning a number of physical separation techniques for the preconcentration of Ni laterite ores that had been tested at laboratory or pilot plant scale, …

Ferronickel production. Processing of laterite ores traditionally consists of a two stage process using fossil fuels (eg., coal, oil, natural gas) in the kiln operation followed by electric furnace smelting of the calcine to produce a ferronickel product and discard slag, Lagendijk and Jones (1997).

Nickel laterites are currently processed with the exception of the hybrid Caron process by either a pyrometallurgical route or a hydrometallurgical route. Most pyrometallurgical routes (ferronickel and matte smelting) use a conventional flow sheet which includes steps for upgrading in the mine, drying, further upgrading, …

September 29, 2011. Nickel-cobalt (Ni-Co) laterite deposits are an important source of nickel (Ni). Currently, there is a decline in magmatic Ni-bearing sulfide lode deposit resources. New efforts to develop an alternative source of Ni, particularly with improved metallurgy processes, make the Ni-Co laterites an important exploration target in ...

The DNi Process TM is a simple metal extraction technology. We're able to process the full lateritic ore profile with complete flexibility. This means we can blend the laterite limonite, saprolite and transition zone in almost any combination. Thanks to the simpler flowsheet and our use of nitric acid. Simple, economical, effective.

Blending: The DNi Process™ treats limonite, intermediate and saprolite ores in a single stream with no limit on the blend. This means that all of the laterite ore is used and allows for a lower nickel cut-off grade at the mine because more value is extracted, increasing the size and value of the resource. Drying: The ore is dried to ...
