About Atlantic Nickel

Controlled by the Appian Capital Brazil group and the only producer of sulfide nickel in the country, Atlantic Nickel completed, on October 15, 2020, one year of operation in Itagibá, Bahia state, where it has been engaged in extracting the ore essential for manufacturing electric vehicle batteries. More than 1,700 direct jobs have been created by the business and R$ 151 million injected in purchases and contracts with Bahia suppliers from 2018 to 2020.

The company’s projection is to double its production capacity, with the start of underground mining operations at the Santa Rita Mine, expected in 2028, which will extend the mine’s useful life from eight to 34 years (8 years of open-pit mining + 26 years of underground mining). According to the Preliminary Economic Assessment, about US$ 355 million is expected to be invested in the first five years of this new phase.

Moreover, Atlantic Nickel is already celebrating the recent discovery of a new deposit with significant nickel resource potential just 26 km away, in the same geological belt where the Santa Rita Mine operates. The proximity of this new area to the existing infrastructure, combined with the feasibility of logistical integration, points to the success of the expansion study.
