Global Nickel Mining Market Expected to Reach $94 Billion By 2033 as Demand Surges

PALM BEACH, Fla., June 27, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FN Media Group News Commentary - The nickel mining market is fueling several international industries that require nickel to continue to expand. Experts see sustained growth in the global nickel mining market. A report from Precedence Research said that the global nickel mining market size, which surpassed USD 50.07 billion in 2023, is projected to be worth around USD 94.43 billion by 2033, expanding at a CAGR of 6.60% from 2024 to 2033. The report said: “The surge in electric vehicle (EV) production and renewable energy projects further propels the demand for nickel, a crucial component in batteries and clean energy technologies. With expanding economies, strategic investments in mining infrastructure, and a burgeoning urbanization trend, Asia-Pacific remains a key player, driving substantial growth and influencing the dynamics of the global nickel mining market. The rapid expansion of the electric vehicle (EV) market stands as a pivotal catalyst, driving a surge in nickel demand. Nickel's indispensable role in electric vehicle batteries positions it as a cornerstone element in this burgeoning market.” It said key takeaways were: “Asia-Pacific contributed more than 58% of market share in 2023; North America is estimated to expand the fastest CAGR between 2024 and 2033; By end-use, the non-ferrous alloys segment has held the largest market share of 46% in 2023; By end-use, the batteries segment is anticipated to grow at a remarkable CAGR of 7.8% between 2024 and 2033; By mining technique, the open cast mining segment generated over 56% of market share in 2023; and By mining technique, the underground mining segment is expected to expand at the fastest CAGR over the projected period.”   Active companies in the markets this week include: First Atlantic Nickel Corp. (OTCQB: FANCF) (TSXV: FAN), FMC Corporation (NYSE: FMC), Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ: TSLA), Power Nickel Inc. (OTCQB: PNPNF) (TSX-V: PNPN), United States Steel Corporation (NYSE: X).

Asia-Pacific held a dominating share of 58% in the nickel mining market due to a combination of factors. Asia-Pacific commands a significant share in the nickel mining market due to robust industrialization, infrastructure development, and the region's pivotal role in the global stainless steel sector. North America is set for swift expansion in the nickel mining market owing to a heightened need for nickel in electric vehicle (EV) manufacturing and renewable energy applications. The region's commitment to clean energy initiatives and carbon reduction fuels the demand for nickel, essential in EV battery production. Supported by favorable government policies, investments in sustainable mining methods, and advancements in mining technologies, North America stands as a pivotal player in the growing nickel mining sector on the global stage.”

In additional developments this week, First Atlantic Nickel Identified 30km Awaruite Nickel Trend From Data Compilation at its Atlantic Nickel Project in Central Newfoundland   - First Atlantic Nickel also announced it has completed a large-scale data compilation for its 21,850-hectare Atlantic Nickel Project in Central Newfoundland, Canada. This first-time extensive review, covering the entire Pipestone Ophiolite Ultramafic Complex, identified over 700 regional exploration reports. Of these, 134 contained relevant project information, including data on prospecting, geological mapping, airborne geophysics, geochemistry, and drilling.

The data compilation program outlined a 30-km core trend with consistent, highly anomalous nickel concentrations, strongly correlating with the Pipestone Complex's high-magnetic ultramafic rocks. These rocks have high potential for hosting awaruite (nickel-iron alloy) nickel deposits, positioning the project to become the first major awaruite nickel exploration and development project in Atlantic Canada.   CONTINUED Read these full press release and more news for First Atlantic Nickel at:   https://www.fanickel.com/archive
