Nickel Refining

7.3 Nickel Ore Processing and Refining. Primary nickel is produced from two very different ores, lateritic and sulfidic. Lateritic ores normally are found in tropical climates, where weathering, with time, extracts and deposits the ore in layers at varying depths below the surface. Lateritic ores are excavated using large earth-moving equipment ...
