goro nickel mineral processing project

Goro Nickel Project South Pacific Island of New Caledonia

The expected annual capacity of the project is 60000t of nickel and 4300t to 5000t of cobalt. Goro is considered among the world’s best-known laterite ore bodies with 55 million tonnes of estimated measured and indi ed mineral reserves. Goro was acquired by Brazilian iron ore and nickel giant CVRD in 2007 after its friendly $19bn
