Mining operations are critical for innovation and modern industry. Today, the metals and minerals mined by hard working Australians are used to mint physical currency, power gas turbines, and even create metal wiring for electronics and sensitive equipment.
The Ravensthorpe Nickel Operation was developed for such a purpose. Producing thousands of tons of nickel, cobalt, and other minerals every year, this mining operation is an economic backbone for the people of Western Australia.
As of 2021, the Ravensthorpe nickel mine generates 12.695 thousand tonnes of nickel annually. The mine aims to safely extract necessary metals in the most efficient ways possible, providing people worldwide with a steady supply of critical raw materials.
