Nickel mining in Western Australia has been an industry that has had many fluctuations of fortune in its history. Large fluctuations in the world nickel price have seen mines close and reopen on several occasions. In 2004/05, the value of nickel production ($2.7 billion) exceeded that of gold ($2.2 billion). In the 2011 calendar year, nickel contributed $3.9 billion or four per cent to the value of the State's resources. Nickel production in the same year was 188,000 tonnes.

  • Nickel mining in Western Australia has been an industry that has had many fluctuations of fortune in its history. Large fluctuations in the world nickel price have seen mines close and reopen on several occasions. In 2004/05, the value of nickel production ($2.7 billion) exceeded that of gold ($2.2 billion). In the 2011 calendar year, nickel contributed $3.9 billion or four per cent to the value of the State's resources. Nickel production in the same year was 188,000 tonnes. Australia (predominantly Western Australia) holds one-third of the world's known reserves of nickel-producing laterites and sulfide deposits. As of 2011, Australia was the world's fifth largest nickel producer. The only other significant Australian nickel production outside Western Australia is a refinery at Yabulu, Queensland which processes ore from New Caledonia, Indonesia, and the Philippines. (en)
