一、引言镍是许多常用金属(例如,不锈钢)重要的成分。澳大利亚镍工业的创办,是由于西部采矿有限公司在西澳大利亚卡姆巴尔特(Kambalda.W.A)发现高品位硫化矿。在奎纳那(Kwinona)建了精炼厂,不久将建冶炼厂。本评论目的在于提出简化的镍矿处理概要和指出当前有利害关系之处。为有助于这些目的,将对镍矿的地质学和矿物学作简要讨论。包尔达脱(Boldt)已提出镍冶金工业生产方面的详细说明。 I. INTRODUCTION Nickel is an important component of many commonly used metals (eg, stainless steel). The nickel industry in Australia was founded as a result of West Mining’s discovery of high-grade sulfide ores at Kambalda.W.A. in Western Australia. A refinery will be built in Kwinona and a smelter will soon be built. The purpose of this commentary is to present a summary of simplified nickel handling and to point out the areas at stake. To help these purposes, a brief discussion of the geology and mineralogy of nickel mines will be held. Boldt has presented detailed instructions on the nickel metallurgical industry.
