 — Abstract The diminution of sulfide ore deposit as the main source of nickel extraction initiates the development of alternative methods to maximize the processing of low-grade nickel ore including limonitic laterites. Aiming to produce ferronickel with high nickel content and recovery, the study used sodium thiosulfate and natural sulfur as …

 — It has some advantages in extracting nickel and cobalt from limonitic laterite ore, despite a few problems. At present, the process is mainly used to treat limonitic laterite ore with high iron content and low silicon and magnesium contents. Generally, the magnesium content is required to be less than 5%.

 — The limonitic laterite is rich in iron in the form of goethite, while the content of valuable metals such as nickel, cobalt, and scandium is relatively low [11,12].

 — Semantic Scholar extracted view of "Atmospheric leaching characteristics of nickel and iron in limonitic laterite with sulfuric acid in the presence of sodium sulfite" by Jun Luo et al. Skip to ... Nickel is mostly extracted from sulfide ores, however, laterite ores account for over 60 pct of all nickel resources in the world, and despite ...

 — 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 is treated by pyrometallurgy process. On the other hand, limonite-type ore is subjected to hydrometallurgy process to produce nickel products. Hydrometallurgy …

Limonitic ores are typically processed by hydrometallurgical leaching methods in order to avoid the high costs associated with dehydrating, heating and smelting of a large volume of relatively low grade ore. In some cases, limonitic ores may be smelted in a blast furnace to pr oduce nickel pig iron, although this is an energy intensive process,

The mined ores (1–4% Ni) are processed to upgrade the metal content with 10–20% Ni in the concentrates. Thus, the preconcentration of nickel ores is an important unit ... and iron compared to the limonitic ores. The Ni/Co ratio in the smelter feed is generally ~ 40. These ores are smelted to produce either ferronickel or matte.

 — In this paper, low-grade limonitic nickel laterite and chromite were synergistically utilized via the hybrid sintering process (i.e., pellet-sintering process) for high-quality Ni–Cr sinter preparation and great carbon emission reduction.
