  • 5. Production, Import/Export, Use, and Disposal
    COBALT 195 5. PRODUCTION, IMPORT/EXPORT, USE, AND DISPOSAL 5.1 PRODUCTION Cobalt is the 33rd most abundant element, comprising approximately 0.0025% of the weight of the earth’s crust. It is often found in association with nickel, silver, lead, copper, and iron ores and occurs in mineral form as arsenides, sulfides, and oxides. The most import cobalt minerals are: linnaeite, Co3S4; carrolite, CuCo2S4; safflorite, CoAs2; skutterudite, CoAs3; erythrite, Co3(AsO4)2•8H2O; and glaucodot, CoAsS (Hodge 1993; IARC 1991; Merian 1985; Smith and Carson 1981). The largest cobalt reserves are in the Congo (Kinshasa), Cuba, Australia, New Caledonia, United States, and Zambia. Most of the U.S. cobalt deposits are in Minnesota, but other important deposits are in Alaska, California, Idaho, Missouri, Montana, and Oregon. Cobalt production from these deposits, with the exception of Idaho and Missouri, would be as a byproduct of another metal (USGS 2004). Cobalt is also found in meteorites and deep sea nodules. The production of pure metal from these ores depends on the nature of the ore. Sulfide ores are first finely ground (i.e., milled) and the sulfides are separated by a floatation process with the aid of frothers (i.e., C5–C8 alcohols, glycols, or polyethylene or polypropylene glycol ethers). The concentrated product is subjected to heating in air (roasting) to form oxides or sulfates from the sulfide, which are more easily reduced. The resulting matte is leached with water and the cobalt sulfate leachate is precipitated as its hydroxide by the addition of lime. The hydroxide is dissolved in sulfuric acid, and the resulting cobalt sulfate is electrolyzed to yield metallic cobalt.

  • Om Group, Inc. 2002 Annual Report Dear Fellow Shareowners
    OM GROUP, INC. 2002 ANNUAL REPORT DEAR FELLOW SHAREOWNERS: In 2002, OM Group confronted the most challenging conditions in its history. An increasingly weak global economy, a depressed cobalt price and various operating issues associated with our nickel business all combined to limit earnings and cash flow from our Base Metals business. As a result, our ability to reduce the significant amount of incremental debt associated with the acquisition of the Precious Metals business in late 2001 was severely impaired in the near term. We met these challenges by developing and launching an aggressive and broad-based corporate restructuring plan designed to increase profitability, reduce costs, quickly restore our balance sheet strength and reposition OMG for future growth. The key components of our plan include: ( Generating up to $100 million from the sale of non-core assets, including the SCM Powdered Metals business; Tungsten Carbide technology and related assets; and the PVC Heat Stabilizer and other assets, such as the Microbond product lines; ( Reducing workforce expenses by approximately $35 million in 2003, and by approximately $45 million on an annualized basis starting in 2004, through the elimination of approximately 550 positions; ( Lowering other manufacturing and administrative costs by approximately $30 million in 2003, and by approximately $40 million on an annualized basis starting in 2004; and ( Initiating the process to monetize some portion or all of our Precious Metals Businesses through either a strategic or financial partnership. With this blueprint in hand, the company successfully amended its senior credit facilities. Completing this step provided the access to the capital and liquidity necessary to fully implement our restructuring initiatives which, in the fourth quarter, resulted in restructuring and other charges of approximately $330 million.
