    Mining Weekly reported that Mirabela Nickel Ltd. (ASX:MBN) has cut almost 34 percent of its staff due to the low nickel price.

    Mining Weekly reported that Mirabela Nickel Ltd. (ASX:MBN) has cut almost 34 percent of its staff due to the low nickel price.
    As quoted in the market news:

    The company dismissed some 220 employees and a further 180 contractors at its Santa Rita mine, in Brazil, as part of a decision to decrease production from the mine to reduce operating costs.
    The lower production model was implemented in late October and would see a 33% reduction in yearly nickel concentrate output at Santa Rita, which Mirabela was hoping would allow the operation to reach a break-even cash position over the next 15 months.
    Yearly production would reduce from 18 000 t to 12 000 t.
