Nickel Laterite Ore
Nickel laterite ore is a type of oxidized nickel ore primarily sourced from tropical regions, containing nickel in association with iron, magnesium, and silica. It falls under HTS 2604.00.00 as it is a nickel ore used mainly for nickel extraction through pyrometallurgical or hydrometallurgical processes. This classification covers unprocessed or concentrated forms without significant beneficiation beyond crushing.
Saprolite Nickel Ore
Saprolite nickel ore is a limonite-type laterite ore rich in magnesium silicates and nickel, typically mined in open pits in New Caledonia or Australia. Classified under HTS 2604.00.00 as a nickel-bearing ore and concentrate for recovery of nickel metal. It remains in raw or crudely concentrated form prior to smelting.
Garnierite Nickel Ore
Garnierite is a green serpentine mineral ore containing nickel silicate, a primary source of nickel concentrates worldwide. It is classified under HTS 2604.00.00 for nickel ores and concentrates intended for smelting or leaching. The ore is typically beneficiated by flotation to produce concentrates.
Pentlandite Nickel Ore
Pentlandite is the principal nickel sulfide mineral ore, often intergrown with pyrrhotite in nickel-copper deposits. Classified under HTS 2604.00.00 as nickel ore and concentrates before milling and flotation. Key source for high-grade nickel concentrates.
