SMM3, 4 March-Sherritt International (Sherritt International), a global leader in nickel-cobalt mining and refining at the laterite mine, announced on March 1 that its smelter at (Fort Saskatchewan), Saskatcher Winburg, Alberta, has been in operation since 1954. Nickel production has reached 3 billion pounds, reaching the production milestone.
The Saskatchewan Fort Saskatchewan smelter processes mixed sulfides produced by Moa Joint Venture to produce massive and powdered grade I nickel. The joint venture was founded in 1994 and Sherritt holds a 50 per cent partnership interest. Primary nickel is the purest form of nickel and is particularly suitable for applications that require high purity, such as electric vehicle batteries.
In 2018, the Moa joint venture produced 30708 tons of finished nickel (100 per cent purity) and 3234 tons of cobalt (100 per cent purity). In 2019, the Moa joint venture is expected to produce 3.1 to 33000 tons of finished nickel (100 per cent purity) and 3300 to 3,600 tons of finished cobalt (100 per cent purity).
In 2018, Ambatovy Joint Venture produced 33185 tons of finished nickel (100 per cent purity) and 2852 tons of finished cobalt (100 per cent purity). In 2019, the Ambatovy joint venture is expected to produce 4-45000 tons of finished nickel (100 per cent purity) and 3500 to 4000 tons of finished cobalt (100 per cent purity).
Production in the fourth quarter of 2018: Sherritt:Moa JV joint venture produced 4294 tons of nickel and 428 tons of cobalt in the fourth quarter of 2018
