According to a Mysteel survey, the 60,000-tonne-per-year nickel sulfate project of Jilin Jien Nickel Industry Co., Ltd. officially commenced production on December 31, 2025. Located in the Panshi Metallurgical and Chemical New Materials Industrial Park, the project represents a total investment of Yuan 1.279 billion. It covers a site area of 160,570 square meters with a total building area of 96,500 square meters. The primary construction includes a main production line with an annual capacity of 60,000 tonnes of nickel sulfate, along with supporting public and auxiliary facilities.
The project is being implemented in two phases. The first phase, with a capacity of 30,000 tonnes per year, utilizes high-grade nickel matte as its raw material. The second phase, also with a capacity of 30,000 tonnes per year, will use nickel-cobalt hydroxide as feedstock. Upon full completion, the project's total designed output will reach an annual production of 60,000 tonnes of nickel sulfate, 3,658 tonnes of cobalt sulfate, and 3,600 tonnes of manganese sulfate.
