From the DNi Web Site have a look if you forgot why you are here.
Vision
Industry leadership:
Our aim is to build Direct Nickel into a major nickel producer, using the DNi Process licences to access and process nickel laterite resources.
Resource revaluation:
DNi is building a nickel inventory by acquiring interests in undervalued laterite resources and is substantially revaluing these resources by applying the DNi Process.
A successful DNi Process will revalue nickel companies by 20-30 times (by market capitalisation). Mine development:
Select optimum deposits, using leverage from the DNi Process and build mines in partnership with resource owners.
Strategy
De-risking the DNi Process:
A successful Demonstration Plant promises to set the foundations for disruptive change in the economics of the nickel sector. With Process demonstration in hand, Direct Nickel has a clear path to become a high efficiency nickel producer with strong margins driven by a capital cost around half of conventional processes, and among the lowest global operating costs.
Strong technical and financial partners:
Teck Resources, Drinkard Metalox, Aker Solutions, OZ Minerals, Australias Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO), Regency Mines and a global IP protection team.
Resource acquisition:
Direct Nickel is positioned to become a nickel explorer and producer and has secured interests in a number of resources through partnership. In time DNi will acquire and develop its own projects.
