The project is subject to a contract of work (CoW) first established by Presidential Decree in Indonesia in 1998. The current area covered by the CoW is 54,874 Ha, with approximately 344,000,000 tonnes of ore that is expected to yield approximately 5,000,000 tonnes of nickel, and 250,000 tonnes of cobalt. Halmahera Island lies to the east of Sulawesi in the Indonesian archipelago in North Maluku Province. It is a largely undeveloped island, where local communities are principally located according to the natural resources of the area. The project will take place in the central area of the Island in the northern reaches of Weda Bay (Figure E - 1). The project will ultimately develop a hydrometallurgical beneficiation plant to enable the export of the metals as concentrates. That process has been developed by the WBN parent company, ERAMET based in France.
