		The public may recognise nickel in coins, as it is used for this purpose in pure or alloy forms by many countries, or as bright and durable electrolytically-applied coatings on steel (nickel plating).
		Nickel is also readily recycled in many of its applications, and large tonnages of secondary or "scrap" nickel are used to supplement newly mined metal.
		Nickel in certain forms and under particular circumstances, may generate detrimental environmental (including health and safety) effects, notwithstanding the fact that it is considered to be a vital element for public health by some scientist.

	Dartmouth Toxic Metal Research - Toxic Metals!
		Nickel alloys were used to produce plate and chain armors during the Middle Ages, and the relative abundance of nickel-containing ores made it an inexpensive way to add a fine sheen to coin currency.
		The word “nickel” became a popular term for the five-cent piece itself, despite the fact that the majority of the coin was copper (the U.S. nickel coin of the 1800s contained 75 percent copper and 25 percent nickel).
		The Petsamo nickel mine in Finland, previously brought to a standstill by the invading Soviet army, was captured by the Germans in 1940 and became a major source of steel-strengthening nickel for the German war.

	Nickel (EHC 108, 1991)
		Nickel carbonate, nickel sulfide, and nickel oxide are insoluble in water, whereas nickel chloride, nickel sulfate, and nickel nitrate are water soluble.
		Nickel is a ubiquitous trace metal and occurs in soil, water, air, and in the biosphere.
		Nickel, which is emitted into the environment from both natural and man-made sources, is circulated throughout all environmental compartments by means of chemical and physical processes, and is biologically transported by living organisms.

		Nickel is economically extracted from deposits of nickel-bearing minerals in the Earth's crust, which, over geological time, have concentrated nickel into relatively small areas near to the surface in what are known as orebodies.
		Nickel is of considerable economic and strategic importance to many countries, as can be appreciated from the wide diversity of end-use industries which it serves.
		The International Nickel Study Group, based in The Hague, Netherlands, is an inter-governmental body which publishes monthly statistics on nickel supply and demand, and acts as a forum for the exchange of information and views on nickel trends.

	BHP on China's Nickel Demand (BHP Conf Call Quotes) - SeekingAlpha
		Nickel is readily recognized in coins, where it is used by many countries in both pure and alloy forms, and as bright and durable electrolytically-applied “nickel plating” coatings on steel.
		While nickel demand in Europe and the Americas decreased in the period from 1997-2002, this demand increased in Asia and the former East Bloc countries.
		Laterite nickel deposits can be bulk mined, but the nickel can't be concentrated, so that both capital and operating costs are typically higher than sulfide projects.

	Tuomo Korkalo. Gold and copper deposits in Central Lapland, Northern Finland, with special reference to their ...
		At least 30 gold deposits verified by means of one or more notable diamond drill hole results have been discovered in Central Lapland in the last 20 years, and these can be divided spatially into groups, between which the metal composition varies.
		The iron oxide-copper-gold deposits of Central Lapland, which are a significant potential source of copper and gold, are mostly associated with skarn rocks at the eastern contact of the acidic intrusive rocks of Western Lapland and with skarn rocks occurring as interlayers in metavolcanic and metasedimentary rocks.
		The gold deposits that have led to actual mining activities in Central Lapland are Saattopora in Kittilä and Pahtavaara in Sodankylä.
