Silicate type (or saprolite type) nickel ore formed beneath the limonite zone. It contains generally 1.5-2.5% nickel and consists largely of Mg-depleted serpentine in which nickel is incorporated. In pockets and fissures of the serpentinite rock green garnierite can be present in minor quantities, but with high nickel contents
Nickel laterites are thick weathering profiles derived by leaching of ultramafic rocks by meteoric water. Olivine or derived serpentine provides the nickel. Profiles with economically significant deposits derive their Ni from 40-m (15−100 m, 10 th −90 th percentile range) thicknesses of protolith grading 0.16 to 0.3 percent Ni and 5.5 to 10

In the case of nickel laterites, the ore is typically crushed and ground, then mixed with the chosen reductant and any other additives, and pelletized into pellets in the range of 10-15mm. As with other metallurgical applications, pelletizing may be carried out using either a rotary drum (balling drum) or disc pelletizer (balling disc).

Nickel laterite ore is extracted using both selective and bulk mining methods in open cast mining operations.

1. Nickel and cobalt can usually be solubilized from laterites using sulphuric acid at atmospheric pressure, just below boiling point. However, this generally requires a massive quantity of acid, which can render the process uneconomic. The main reason for this is that for limonitic ores in particular, the

In the rest of the profile, Ni is mainly hosted by iron oxy-hydroxides (dominant goethite, subordinate hematite) in the typical low-grade oxide ore type. Nickel content is correlated with goethite crystallinity and anti-correlated with hematite proportion. Nickel content thus decreases, while hematite increases upward (Dublet et al., 2015, 2012).
