Global nickel mine production is expected to reach 2,427.4 thousand tonnes (kt) in 2021, up by 6.8% over 2020, after registering an estimated 4.2% decline to 2,272.0kt in 2020, amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Output from Indonesia, the Philippines and Brazil will be significant contributors to the overall growth. In contrast, production is expected to decline in Russia, South Africa and Finland, owing to lower production from the Oktyabrsky and Taimyrsky mines and the planned closure of African Rainbow Minerals’ Nkomati mine in 2021.Production over the forecast period (2021-2025) is expected to grow at a CAGR of 3.0%, to reach 2,730.6kt in 2025, with Indonesia, Russia, Canada and the Philippines being the key contributors to this growth.
