Atmospheric Leaching Behavior and Kinetics Study of Roasted Laterite …

Laterite ore is a valuable resource due to its high content of metals essential for modern technology, including nickel, iron, and cobalt. However, extracting nickel from laterite ores is challenging due to their complex mineral composition and low nickel concentrations. This study examined the leaching behavior of pre-roasted laterite ore …

Nickel industry

Laterite ores occur as surface deposits and are traditionally separated into two main types: limonites (lower nickel, high iron) and saprolites (higher nickel, low iron). Limonites typically have cobalt as an additional value component, while saprolite is treated for its nickel value only.

What is nickel laterite?

Nickel laterite is formed by the weathering of nickel-bearing silicate minerals such as peridotite, dunite and harzburgite.These minerals are magnesium silicates containing iron, nickel, cobalt and minor concentrations of platinum and palladium (PGM). Weathering results from the surface exposure of these easily altered minerals to sunlight and ...

Laterite

Laterite is a soil type rich in iron and aluminium and is commonly considered to have formed in hot and wet tropical areas. Nearly all laterites are of rusty-red coloration, because of high iron oxide content. They develop by intensive and prolonged weathering of the underlying parent rock, usually when there are conditions of high temperatures and …

Laterite Ore

The second principle of ferronickel smelting is that laterite ores cannot be smelted to nickel metal alone, i.e., separately from iron. This is because (1) garnierite concentrates always contain 5–10 times more Fe than Ni and (2) oxygen is only slightly more strongly bonded to Fe than to Ni—i.e., FeO in calcined concentrate is almost as easy to reduce as NiO.
