Curran Kemp host rocks for nickel are any untramafic rocks and often closely associated with gold especially using the porphyry model. They’ve mined gold there too and I’m sure probably get gold as a bi-product like Chile gets gold from it’s copper. They probably skim off the nickel ore and just run heavies if it’s worthwhile. I know some mills are able to process nickel and copper so I’m sure they have a process for ore they think has gold, maybe just gravity after crushing or something.

I'd argue that this is the greatest appreciation for life man has ever had. We live far longer and suffer much less then ever before. Even the poor have amenities that make quality of life far superior then past generations. The downside of such progress is a tragedy but if that's what drives the progress that keeps people healthy and happy, so be it. Try not to forget that environmentalism is in itself, profitable. Regulation drives innovation and creates it's own form of industry. Measures should be taken to preserve the environment but mining is a necessary evil

This is the most energy intensive way to process nickel. The problem is most of the worlds remaining resources are oxide ore like this. Cheap oil and cheap coal artificially keep these operations running if they paid the price of GHGs this would not be viable. I did not even bring up the cost of environmental damage from the strip mining process, the tailings, and the acid used in some processes. Right now the entire island is generating 2,670,000 mega watt hours of electricity and 90% of this is from coal and oil. How much of this power is used just to operate the furnaces for the oxide reduction process? The semi refined product is exported, the high value income and jobs of this industry is exported with matt produced on the Island. How do I know these things ( I work in the nickel industry in a different country using a different process ) Why does the producer of this film not talk about the true cost of this?

And who NEEDS the EU to buy Indonesian nickel anyway? The US, China, hell all of southeast Asian tech producing countries will buy it, and with the UK leaving the euro zone soon, they'll buy some as well. I support cutting off the EU, the EU is the worst pile of socialist dirtbag governance since Mao's "people's republic" of China.

Inco will NOT help that community! I live in Sudbury Ontario, a city practically built upon Inco's promises in the modern age and we supply the world with its nickel requirements, from the Nickel used in artillery to small arms barrels all the way down to supplying smaller chrome plating operations & batteries, theres a good chance the nickel you touch/dont even know you're using right now in your day to day life came from my small city. we have been rocked by the opioid crisis, billions are made a few tens of kilometres from where I live and am writing this right now, into won't donate any money to build new, better treatment facilities, theres also next to nothing to do in Sudbury, inco doesn't even consider building parks or anything else for entertainment for that matter. yes, they do some stuff for the community, nowhere near enough though... and not even close to an eighth of what they could spare to do and still be filthy rich. but, we have an incredibly blue manmade lake, which is impeccably blue thanks to all the heavy metals and contaminated water they pump into it. however it is true that theyve moved on and Valé (an Australian company) now runs the show, along with the new gold miners in town. fuck Inco, they could barely pay their own miners here in Sudbury enough to stay on the job, I can only imagine the grief they're causing Caledonians...

Alex, sounds like an awful crisis and I have no doubt that most of it is true. Vale is a Brazilian company (formerly CRVD) of which Inco is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of, not an Australian company. Vale also has a pretty poor environmental record, just look at the failure of their tailings dams in Brazil. Vale are also in the process of selling their mine and processing plant in New Caledonia, to the Australian company New Century Resources Limited, after significant losses year after year. Perhaps New Century will do a better job.

Jesus H Christ, no I don't see the point. What I see is an idiot. You see, nobody is throwing a mountain of dirt on the great barrier reef.. AND, these mines are under environmental regulations which force them to re-plant the areas once mining has finished. Do you even OWN a book? All this crybaby sissy activism is nothing more than emotional masturbation, and you should be ashamed. Your comment is a waste of perfectly good estrogen.
