NICKEL AND COBALT ORES: FLOTATION

Most of the world's nickel is extracted from the mineral pentlandite, (Ni, Fe)9S8, which frequently oc-curs in ores containing predominantly pyrrhotite and various non-sulRdes, some of which contain magne-sium (Table 1). The nickel content in such sul Rde ores is generally low (0.2}3%) and varies from place to place in the same deposit.

Nickel Statistics and Information | U.S. Geological Survey

Nickel (Ni) is a transition element that exhibits a mixture of ferrous and nonferrous metal properties. It is both siderophile (i.e., associates with iron) and chalcophile (i.e., associates with sulfur). The bulk of the nickel mined comes from two types of ore deposits: magmatic sulfide deposits where the principal ore mineral is pentlandite ...
