For example, in this study, the ore handling value for PGMs is 1,030 GJ/t-PGMs, while for Ni it is only 11.2 GJ/t-Ni. In the case of Co, it represents almost 40% of the total energy required for the rest of the stages. ... the ore grade for Nickel that could be reached by applying the mentioned energy limit would be below crustal concentration ...

Closely monitoring moisture content of the cargo during loading and carefully managing navigation during passage are the best practices for preventing liquefaction incidents in nickel ore shipments.

Re-Design of Nickel Ore Hopper A flat bottomed road receival hopper, acting as the entry point to a nickel ore handling facility, was observed to arch and rathole. This resulted in sporadic flow (surges), blockage and ultimately costly downtime for the client. The existing hopper and feeder/breaker arrangement (hopper floor) is shown in Figure 1.

This will create a state of uncertainty over the nickel ore production and put pressure on operating mines to produce cargo for export before they too may face suspension. We understand from local press reports …

One week ago we published an urgent warning on the hazards of liquefaction of nickel ore cargoes, particularly when loaded in ports in Indonesia or the Philippines. This warning was issued due to a number of incidents, the most serious being the loss of two bulk carriers in November, the Nasco Diamond and Jian Fu Star.

Some nickel ore may exhibit weak magnetic properties, depending on the mineral content. Nickel ore has good thermal and electrical conductivity. Nickel ore is not highly reactive, but can react with strong acids and oxidizing agents. Nickel ore can range in colour from silver to black, depending on the type and mineral content. Read More ...
