SYDNEY, May 7 -- Australian nickel miner Mincor Resources (MCR.AX: Quote) will reactivate its Miitel nickel mine in west Australia due to a recovery in metals prices, the firm said on Friday.

The mine was closed in December 2008 due to low prices and a dismal outlook for demand.

The mine will return to its previous full production rate of between 4,500 and 5,500 tonnes of nickel in concentrate annually in July, the company said.
