Responsible sourcing, community employment, and land reclamation are part of the foundation of how we operate, not an afterthought.
Growing together is not just a goal, it is a part of the foundation of our sustainability.
Responsible sourcing, production, and sale of lateritic nickel material, with a commitment to environmental stewardship and supporting local communities throughout the life of the operation.
To establish Nusa Nickel as a world-class nickel operator delivering exceptional value to shareholders while fostering sustainable practices that benefit the communities and environments where we operate.
After ore extraction, Nusa Nickel plants specialized tree species on mined lands that are specifically selected to thrive in marginal, post-mining soils with depleted nutrients.
These species provide multiple benefits: they stabilize soils against erosion, sequester carbon as they grow, and support progressive afforestation of the disturbed land. The selected species are also economically productive: seeds and biomass can be processed into biofuels, providing an economic restoration pathway for local communities.
Organic fertilizer derivatives from the reclamation process further support local agriculture and land productivity, creating a circular economy around restoration rather than treating reclamation as a pure cost center.
Nusa Nickel maintains a priority local hiring policy. Community members from Central Sulawesi and surrounding areas are prioritized in recruitment, reducing dependence on imported labor and ensuring economic benefits circulate within the region.
Local employment is supported by tailored training programs spanning technical mining skills, safety protocols, equipment operation, and leadership development. These programs are designed to build a pipeline of skilled local workers who can progress within the organization.
This approach aligns with the Indonesian government's focus on local content and community benefit-sharing, and ensures Nusa Nickel's operations contribute to the long-term economic development of the communities that host them.
Post-mining land rehabilitation with selected tree species. Soil stabilization, afforestation, and economic restoration through biofuel feedstock production.
Responsible water use at the Nickel Island Project. Sediment and runoff management to protect the surrounding watershed and coastal environment near the export jetty.
Reclamation planting contributes to progressive carbon sequestration. The selected species are optimized for above-ground biomass accumulation in tropical conditions.
Full compliance with Indonesian mining and environmental regulations. Ongoing cooperation with local and national regulatory authorities throughout the permit lifecycle.
