Recently, China's Ministry of Industry and Information Technology approved two pivotal standards -- YS/T 1757-2025 Raw Nickel-Cobalt Materials, YS/T 1758-2025 Nickel Matte. Both standards were developed under the leadership of Huayou New Energy Technology (Quzhou) Co., Ltd., strengthening China's technical framework for nickel smelting intermediates. The specifications provide reliable benchmarks for nickel resource imports and safeguard the nation's critical mineral supply chains.
Huayou Cobalt, as one of China's leading nickel and cobalt refiners, has established advanced smelting bases leveraging cutting-edge metallurgical technologies. Its flagship "HUAYOU" brand electrolytic nickeL--registered with the LME and Shanghai Futures Exchange (SHFE)--demonstrates the company's industry-leading refining capabilities.
