Abstract

The article focuses on a research paper on mineralogy of garnierite from the laterite-nickel deposit in Kolonodale Area in Sulawesi, Indonesia. It discusses the factors affecting the formation of garnierite including the intensive lateritization of ultramafic rocks under the rain forest climate and the alkaline environment. It also mentions that they have an average 15.01 percent nickel oxide content, higher than the general lateritic nickel ore.
