It is found that the maximum separation coefficient of nickel and cobalt is 1.2 × 10 4 at the extraction ratio of 1:1. Under this extraction ratio, the more extraction amount of cobalt, the less extraction amount of nickel. It realizes the effective separation of nickel and cobalt. Therefore, the best extraction phase ratio is regarded as 1:1.

Two broad ore types. Nickel occurs in two broad ore types: laterite (oxide) ores, principally located in tropical and sub-tropical areas, and; sulfide ores, principally located in the temperate to sub-Arctic regions. Major nickel mining locations are depicted in the map – but some of these locations have many operations, and some only one.
