Involved since the pre-feasibility stage of the project in 2010, SRK was commissioned to generate a mineral resource model to support the feasibility study on the Dumont Nickel project. Dumont is one of the world’s largest undeveloped nickel sulphide projects. SRK developed an advanced mineral resource model for this complex polymetallic sulphide environment. To support the mine design and the economic analysis of the project, a geometallurgical model was also generated by bridging the gap between the geostatistics and the metallurgy. The feasibility study was published in July 2013.
