ScienceNetwork Western Australia reported that Perth CSIRO scientists and an Australian technology company have collaborated on a method of extracting nickel from low-grade ore in a commercially viable manner. Those involved in the project believe the new process could impact the international nickel industry.
As quoted in the market news:
The new extraction technology has been six years in development after DNi, which has the patent for nitric acid recycling, approached CSIRO to develop it for metallurgical processes.
