Dream - Nickel is increasingly becoming the world's target because it is one of the raw materials for electric vehicle batteries. As a rich country in natural resources, Indonesia claims to have potential nickel reserves with a much larger amount than those already discovered. The Geological Agency of the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) reports that this Nusantara Land still has 1.2 million hectares of untapped or unexplored nickel reserves.
Secretary of the Geological Agency, Rita Susilawati, explained that currently only about 800 thousand hectares of areas with nickel content have been excavated from a total potential area of 2 million hectares.
"ungkapnya dikutip dari Merdeka.com, Jumat, 19 Januari 2024." translates to "he said as quoted from Merdeka.com, Friday, January 19, 2024."
Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources, Arifin Tasrif said, Indonesia currently holds approximately 5.3 billion tons of nickel reserves. In fact, its potential is even greater, up to three times more. "If we look at the nickel potential now, there are reserves, there is potential. Our reserves are 5.3 billion tons, and our potential is 17 billion (tons)," said Arifin at the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources office some time ago.
Arifin explained, nickel itself is divided into two types. First, high-grade nickel, which is more than 1.5 percent, is called saprolite. The second type is low-grade nickel, which is less than 1.5 percent, or limonite.
terang Arifin. This translates to "bright Arifin."
According to him, with a nickel reserve of 5.3 billion tons currently owned, it is sufficient for production capacity for up to 15 years. However, its lifespan can increase if the existing potential is developed, and it also contributes to the electric vehicle battery recycling industry.
"So if the current capacity is around 5 billion (tons), it can last for 15 years. But if we can develop this potential, it can last longer," said Arifin.
"Nah, going forward, there can also be a battery recycling industry. So, yeah, why can recycling be topped up, so yeah, it will be longer, we just shouldn't be wasteful," he requested.
