Nickel Industries Limited announced that Hengjaya Mine has received approval to increase its 2025 RKAB nickel ore sales quota from 9 million wmt to 10.5 million wmt, enabling the immediate resumption of stockpiled ore sales to IMIP via haul road and barging. The approval follows the endorsement of a five-year AMDAL by Indonesia’s Ministry of Environment, which also supports higher RKAB volumes in 2026, with final approval remains pending. The AMDAL includes Indonesia’s first in-pit tailings storage system, featuring a pipeline connecting ENC HPAL and Hengjaya Mine, as well as approval to transport limonite via slurry pipeline, significantly reducing costs and emissions.
