At Ambaliya Mineralogy Pvt. Ltd., our Nickel Ore Division stands as a strategic pillar of our international mineral portfolio. With over 30 years of expertise in mining, mineral processing, and global trading, we have established ourselves as a trusted and forward-thinking supplier of premium-grade Nickel Ore to clients across Asia, the Middle East, Europe, and other international markets.

Our Nickel Ore division focuses on quality consistency, supply reliability, and sustainable practices. We provide industrial-grade nickel ores engineered for use in stainless steel production, electric vehicle (EV) battery manufacturing, superalloys, and electrochemical industries. Each shipment we deliver reflects our technical expertise, strict quality assurance, and customer-focused service.

Nickel Ore Sourcing and Supply Strength

Our Nickel Ore is sourced from select high-grade mining zones across Africa, known for their rich laterite and saprolite deposits. Through exclusive contracts, strategic alliances, and direct partnerships with licensed mines, we ensure a steady and scalable supply chain.

Our field operations are supported by in-house teams of geologists and quality inspectors, ensuring:

  • Grade-specific consistency

  • On-site sampling and lab testing

  • Stockpile supervision and pre-shipment checks

  • Third-party verification (SGS, CCIC, etc.)

Every shipment is accompanied by Certificates of Analysis (COA) and compliance reports as per international quality norms.

Nickel Ore Grades – AMNI Specifications

We offer nickel ore grades under the AMNI specification standard, suitable for ferronickel, stainless steel, battery materials, and alloy production:

  • AMNI 3.5% to 3.74% Ni – Medium grade suitable for blending and low-Ni industrial applications.

  • AMNI 3.75% to 3.99% Ni – Balanced grade, ideal for stainless steel and alloy industries.

  • AMNI 4.00% to 4.24% Ni – High-performance grade for ferronickel and NPI (Nickel Pig Iron) production.

  • AMNI 4.25% to 4.49% Ni – Premium quality with higher metal recovery, suitable for superalloys.

  • AMNI 4.50% to 4.74% Ni – Industrial high-grade for specialty steel and battery-grade nickel extraction.

  • AMNI 4.75% to 4.99% Ni – Superior grade, favored for high-end metallurgical applications.

  • AMNI 5% and above Ni – Ultra-high grade, reserved for critical alloys and advanced EV battery sectors.

Each grade is available in:

  • 10mm to 100mm sizes (lumps)

  • Crushed fines

  • Moisture-controlled lots

We also offer custom blending services tailored to meet specific Fe/Mg ratios and moisture content, ensuring optimal performance for integrated steel plants and alloy producers.

Industrial Applications & End-User Segments

Our Nickel Ore is used in various industrial sectors, including:

  • Stainless Steel Production

    Nickel enhances corrosion resistance, ductility, and thermal stability, making it an essential component for all grades of stainless steel including Austenitic, Duplex, and Martensitic variants.

  • Superalloy Production

    Used in high-temperature applications, such as jet engines, turbines, and chemical reactors, our nickel ore supports the production of Inconel, Monel, and other high-performance superalloys.

  • Battery & EV Sector

    With the rise of lithium-ion batteries, especially NMC (Nickel-Manganese-Cobalt) and NCA types, our nickel ore plays a critical role in producing battery-grade nickel and precursor materials.

  • Chemical Catalysts & Electroplating

    Nickel compounds derived from our ores are widely used for electroplating, hydrogenation catalysts, and various chemical synthesis applications.
