  • Overview of the Nickel Market in Latin America and the Caribbean
    INSG SECRETARIAT BRIEFING PAPER April 2021 – No.35 Overview of the Nickel market in Latin America and the Caribbean Ricardo Ferreira, Director of Market Research and Statistics Francisco Pinto, Manager of Statistical Analysis 1. Introduction At the suggestion of the Group’s Brazilian delegation, it was agreed by members that a report, based on INSG Insight No. 26, published in November 2015 entitled “An overview of the nickel industry in Latin America”, be prepared by the secretariat. This would include an update of the operations that resumed production (e.g. Falcondo in the Dominican Republic), and also discuss how the emerging battery market might influence nickel usage in the region as well as the possibility of nickel scrap usage. This detailed and comprehensive Insight report, the 35th in the series of INSG Insight briefing reports, provides members with the results of that research work. In Latin America and the Caribbean, the nickel producing countries are Brazil, Colombia, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Guatemala and Venezuela. The Dominican Republic stopped nickel mining and smelting in October 2013 but resumed production at the beginning of 2016. Venezuela has not produced since mid-2015. All of these countries mine nickel and process it further to produce intermediate or primary nickel – mainly ferronickel. Most of the mined ore is processed within each country, and then exported to overseas markets, but Brazil and Guatemala also export nickel ore. In terms of usage only Brazil and Mexico are relevant regarding the global nickel market. The first section of this report briefly describes existing nickel deposits in the region.

  • Rebel Attacks on Nickel Ore Mines in the Surigao Del Norte Region
    Mindanao, Philippines – rebel attacks on nickel ore mines in the Surigao del Norte region The attacks On 3 October 2011, three mining firms located in and around Claver town in the Surigao del Norte region of Mindanao, Philippines were attacked by the rebel group known as the New People’s Army (NPA). It was reported that the attacks were prompted by a refusal of the mining firms to pay a "revolutionary tax" demanded by the NPA. The affected mining firms are the Taganito Mining Corporation (TMC), Taganito HPAL Nickel Corporation and Platinum Group Metals Corporation (PGMC)1. According to news reports and Gard’s local correspondent in the Philippines, some 300 NPA rebels wearing police/military uniforms staged coordinated strikes on the three mining facilities. The rebels attacked TMC’s compound first, burning heavy equipment, service vehicles, barges and buildings. Other rebel groups simultaneously attacked the nearby PGCM and Taganito HPAL compounds. Unconfirmed reports indicate that, unfortunately, casualties were also experienced during the attacks. All foreign vessels anchored near Taganito at the time of the attacks left the anchorage safely. The current situation The Philippine Government has stated that the situation is now contained and has deployed additional troops in the area to improve security and pursue the NPA rebels. However, according to Gard’s local correspondent in the Philippines, threats of further attacks made by the NPA in a press release are believed by many to be real. According to the latest press releases (Reuters on 5 October), Nickel Asia Corporation has resumed operations at its biggest nickel mine TMC and expects to ship ore in the next three weeks.

    Table1.—Attribute data for the map "Mineral Facilities of Asia and the Pacific," 2007 (Open-File Report 2010-1254). [The United States Geological Survey (USGS) surveys international mineral industries to generate statistics on the global production, distribution, and resources of industrial minerals. This directory highlights the economically significant mineral facilities of Asia and the Pacific. Distribution of these facilities is shown on the accompanying map. Each record represents one commodity and one facility type for a single location. Facility types include mines, oil and gas fields, and processing plants such as refineries, smelters, and mills. Facility identification numbers (“Position”) are ordered alphabetically by country, followed by commodity, and then by capacity (descending). The “Year” field establishes the year for which the data were reported in Minerals Yearbook, Volume III – Area Reports: Mineral Industries of Asia and the Pacific. In the “DMS Latitiude” and “DMS Longitude” fields, coordinates are provided in degree-minute-second (DMS) format; “DD Latitude” and “DD Longitude” provide coordinates in decimal degrees (DD). Data were converted from DMS to DD. Coordinates reflect the most precise data available. Where necessary, coordinates are estimated using the nearest city or other administrative district.“Status” indicates the most recent operating status of the facility. Closed facilities are excluded from this report. In the “Notes” field, combined annual capacity represents the total of more facilities, plus additional

  • Roy Hill Celebrates Historic First Shipment
    10 December 2015 Roy Hill Celebrates Historic First Shipment Hancock Prospecting Pty Ltd and Roy Hill Holdings Pty Ltd are pleased to announce the historic inaugural shipment from Port Hedland of low phosphorous iron ore from the Roy Hill mine on the MV ANANGEL EXPLORER bound for POSCO’s steel mills in South Korea. Mrs Gina Rinehart, Chairman of Hancock and Roy Hill Holdings Pty Ltd, said “The Roy Hill mega project is the culmination of hard-work from the dedicated small executive and technical teams at Hancock and more recently by the entire Roy Hill team.” “Given that the mega Roy Hill Project was a largely greenfield project that carried with it significant risks and considerable cost, it is remarkable that a relatively small company such as Hancock Prospecting has been able to take on and complete a project of this sheer size and complexity.” “The Roy Hill Project has recorded many achievements already and with the first shipment it will also hold one of the fastest construction start-ups of any major greenfield resource project in Australia. This is a considerable achievement, and although the media refer to a contractors date for shipment, it remains that the shipment still occurred ahead of what the partners schedule had planned in the detailed bankable feasibility study.” “The performance on the construction gives great confidence we can achieve performance as a player of international significance in the iron ore industry. To put the scale of the Roy Hill iron ore project into perspective in regard to Australia’s economy, when the mine is operating at its full capacity, Roy Hill will generate export revenue significantly greater than either Australia's lamb and mutton export industry or our annual wine exports.
