    At the current market rate, that is well over half a trillion dollars worth of nickel already reserved in Australia…a prize well worth protecting and pursuing.

    “In Western Australia alone, in 2008, nickel exports were worth A$4.2 billion and were responsible for employing 3,500 people directly,” he added.
