The Weda Bay Nickel Project aims to develop the nickel deposit of the Halmahera Island, in Indonesia. This a partnership between Eramet and the Chinese steel group Tsingshan, the world\u2019s leading producer of stainless steel.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The partnership agreements between Eramet and Tsingshan were signed in 2018 ; the Group is a minority shareholder.
\nIt consists of producing low grade nickel ferroalloy from the ore mined from the Weda Bay deposit, using a pyrometallurgical process, with a planned capacity of 30.000 tons of nickel per year. This type of low grade nickel ferroalloy is in great demand in the stainless steel industry.
\nThe year 2018 also marked the start of engineering works for the construction of roads and engineering works for access to mining sites, their opening, and transporting the ore to the plant.
\nThe start of the production is expected at the end of 2020.<\/p>\n

The desire to implement strong environmental and societal commitments for this project is an integral part of the objectives set out in the agreements signed between Eramet and Tsingshan.<\/p>\n
