Global Nickel Mining to 2035

GlobalData's "Global Nickel Mining to 2035" provides a comprehensive coverage on the global nickel industry. It provides historical and forecast data on nickel production by country, production by company, reserves by country, world nickel prices. The report also includes a demand drivers section providing information on factors that are affecting the global nickel industry. It further profiles major lithium producers, information on the major active, planned and exploration projects by region.

Global nickel production is estimated to have increased by 6.1% to 4.0Mt in 2025, with growth led overwhelmingly by Indonesia. Higher Indonesian output reflects strong production momentum across several key operations, including Weda Bay, Gag Island, Huafei, Pakal Island, Pomalaa, PT Halmahera Persada Lygend, and Tapunopaka, which collectively reinforced Indonesia's role as the primary driver of incremental global supply. Outside Indonesia, Brazil and Canada also supported the 2025 increase, although on a smaller scale.

Looking ahead, global nickel production is expected to increase further by 9.4% to 4.4Mt in 2026. Growth is again projected to be concentrated in Indonesia, with smaller contributions from Canada, the Philippines, New Caledonia, and Brazil.
