Nickel laterite ore is classified into two principal ore types: saprolite (silicate ore) and limonite (oxide ore). Saprolite-type ore characterized by high magnesia and silica contents …
Saprolite ores are treated by smelting, where the ore is dried and melted using energy from coal and electricity – often coal-based – to recover the nickel as an iron-nickel alloy. The iron-nickel alloy is generally used directly to …
Di Indonesia, nikel kadar tinggi atau saprolite lebih mudah dijual, karena smelter untuk mengolah nikel tersebut sudah tersedia. Sedangkan nikel kadar rendah atau limonite masih jarang terserap. Tak heran jika potensi saprolite terus berkurang di Indonesia, hanya sekitar 930 juta ton, seperempat dari limonite yang mencapai 3,6 miliar ton.
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 …

Semantic Scholar extracted view of "Indirect bioleaching of low-grade nickel limonite and saprolite ores using fungal metabolic organic acids generated by Aspergillus niger" by S. Chaerun et al. ... Atmospheric agitation leaching of nickel from laterite ore using sulfuric acid has poor selectivity to iron.
Nickel (Ni) laterite deposits form by intense chemical weathering of ultramafic rocks in a tropical or sub-tropical climate. Among different types of Ni laterite deposits, hydrous Mg silicate deposits are the most common, and they tend to produce the highest ore grades (2–5 wt.% Ni; Butt and Cluzel 2013).In general, during the chemical weathering of ultramafic rocks, …
Therefore, in this work, the selective reduction of saprolite and limonite was carried out to reveal the effect of lateritic nickel ore basicity (MgO/SiO 2 ratio) on phase transformation and microstructure of reduced nickel ore. The raw materials, such as nickel ore, bituminous coal, and sodium sulfate, were crushed into -100 mesh.
ANTAM conducts open pit mining method with a selective mining to produce high grade and low grade nickel ore. Nickel ore is used for ore feed for Kolaka ferronickel plant as well as being sold to domestic market. ... To produce ferronickel, saprolite nickel ore were first treated to become calcine through a process that crushes, dries, heats ...
The saprolite laterite ore has the highest nickel grade and lower iron grade. Iron mainly exists in the form of silicates, such as serpentine [ 34, 35 ]. The nickel and iron grades in the transition layer are between the limonite and saprolite layers and they mainly occur in goethite, hematite, and silicates.

The results of modeling the geometry of laterite nickel ore obtained that the total tonnage shown in limonite was 0.36 wmt (wet metric ton), inferred 0.10 wmt, and indicated in saprolite was 0.58 ...
To improve beneficiation of nickel and iron from low-grade saprolite laterite with 1.29 wt.%Ni and 16.31 wt.%Fe, co-reduction with limonitic laterite ore and basicity optimization were adopted as ...
The demand for nickel has been steadily increasing in the 21st century, primarily driven by the rising demand for electric vehicle batteries. Nickel in laterite is associated within silicate in saprolite ore and hydroxide/oxide in limonite ore. Recently, the sulfation–roasting–leaching process has been developed to address the challenges of …
Our saprolite ore comes in two types: high-grade and mid-grade, while our limonite ore are high-iron and low-grade. Most of our high-grade saprolite ore are sold to Pacific Metals Co., Ltd. …
The effects of ore grade on embodied energy and GHG emissions were estimated by Norgate et.al. for the various nickel laterite processing routes. The findings are given in Table 4 . The DNi process was carried out in Australia and Indonesia with CO 2 emissions of 7 and 6.64 t/t of SS, respectively; that of the HPAL process has a value of 6.50 t ...

A method for separating nickel containing lateritic ore into limonite and saprolite fractions, the method including the steps of : (a) providing said lateritic ore in particulate form; (b) forming a slurry of said particulate ore; (c) subjecting the ore slurry to a size separation procedure to separate the limonite and saprolite fractions on a selected threshold particle size basis …
as the amount of high grade nickel sulfide ores is dwindling (Janwong, 2012). Therefore processes to improve the economical recovery of nickel from these laterite ... The ore samples are labelled as "ore L" (a limonite ore), "ore S" (a saprolite ore), and "ore I" (an intermediate ore) to identify their geological origin.
Most studies on both limonite and saprolite have reported Ni recoveries greater than 80% and have shown a relatively weak negative dependence on the nickel ore grade …
Saprolite has higher basicity than limonite. The difference between magnesium and silicon oxide in lateritic nickel ore plays an important role in the selective reduction process. Therefore, in this work, the selective reduction of saprolite and limonite was carried out to reveal the effect of lateritic nickel ore basicity (MgO/SiO 2 ratio) on phase transformation and …
