Beobachtet jemand von Euch die Dinge um das Berong Nickel Projekt
auf den Phillipinen? Das ist eines der größten Nickelprojekte der Welt.

Berong Deposit (Quelle Toledo Mining)
The company has a 56.1% interest in the Berong Deposit (comprising the Berong, Moorson and Long Point deposits) which has a combined pre-JORC resources of approximately 275 million tonnes of nickel ore at 1.3%Ni.
Initial activities are centered on developing a direct-shipping laterite operation at Berong, whereby the ore will be sold FOB Philippines to nickel smelters.

First Shipment Departs from Berong Nickel Mine (Quelle: Toledo Mining)
The Directors of Toledo Mining Corporation [TMC] are pleased to advise that the first shipment of laterite nickel ore has departed from the Berong anchorage. The trial metallurgical shipment of approximately 19,000 tonnes is less than the anticipated volume of 40,000 tonnes. This is due to a combination of factors including the ship charter period expiring, intermittent sea swells making loading difficult or preventing loading, and the normal teething problems associated with start of a new operation. From the customer’s perspective, the volume is more than sufficient for metallurgical testing purposes.
The next shipment is planned for later this month. Sea and weather conditions are expected to improve from late February through to early June, the calmer transition period between the monsoon wind changes. In the meantime, planning and scoping studies for the new Dangla road and the trestle conveyor loading system are well underway. These facilities will enable increased volumes as well as the capability to ship at all times except during typhoon periods.
A total of approximately 100,000 tonnes of laterite ore is now stockpiled at the coast ready for shipment. Mining and hauling of the ore is running at the planned rate of approximately 2,000 tonnes per day, and will gradually ramp-up to 4,000 tonnes per day during the dry season. The commercial mining area is currently being developed.
