13 Smelter Nickel Already in Operation: http://ekbis.rmol.co/read/2017/12/28/319998/13-Smelter-Nikel-Sudah-Beroperasi-/28 December 2017
The Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) noted that as of October 2017 there were 13 nickel smelter industries already in operation. While the two smelters were closed due to high operating costs.
Director General of Minerals and Coal Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources Bambang Gatot Ariyono said, investment for the construction of domestic nickel refining facilities reached approximately US $ 5.03 billion or around Rp 68 trillion. The 13 nickel smelters already built and operating have already produced 598 thousand tonnes (FeNi and NPI) and 64 thousand tonnes of Ni-Matte, and able to purify nickel ore in domestic of 34 million tons. While for the last two years, two nickel smelters that stopped operating were caused by economic factors resulting from rising operating costs and weakening of mineral commodity prices in early 2017.
