Nickel Ore Stockpile - stock photo

A March 2012 photo of an open cut nickel laterite mine near Kendari, Southeast Sulawesi province, Indonesia. The nickel rich soil has formed over nickel-bearing ultramafic rocks. An upper layer of red-brown material also contains cobalt in what geologists call limonite. Below the limonite is the more yellowy saprolite horizon which contains higher grades of nickel, sometimes in excess of 2% nickel. Trucks take the nickel ore from the mining area along a haul road to nearby stockpiles which are covered by tarpaulins to keep dry.
