About 60% of the world's known nickel resources are laterites, which tend to be in the southern hemisphere. The remaining 40% are sulfide deposits. Nickel sulfide deposits, the principal ore mineral being pentlandite (Fe,Ni)O (OH), are formed from the precipitation of nickel minerals by hydrothermal fluids.

1. Introduction Nickel is a hard, malleable and ductile metal used mainly in steel-making. Commercial nickel-bearing minerals include pentlandite and garnierite which are sulphide and laterite, respectively ( Yüce et al., 2008 ). Laterite ores can be classified as limonites or saprolites depending on the iron and magnesium content.

An undisturbed vertical profile of these laterites includes protolith, saprolite, clay, and oxide horizons from base to top. Highly serpentinized harzburgite with relicts of olivine and orthopyroxene is regarded as the source rock. The laterites are unusual in lacking a significant saprolite zone with little development of Ni-silicates.
