Nickel sulphide deposits have historically been processed by flotation, followed by smelting to produce a PGM-bearing nickel matte which is shipped to specialist refineries using hydrometallurgical processes to recover the nickel, copper, PGMs and cobalt. There are many such refinery processes including:

[PDF]Get PriceThe term "refining" is used in a narrower context. Henry Cort's original puddling process only worked when the raw material was white cast iron, rather than the gray pig iron that was the usual raw material for finery forges. For the gray pig iron to be usable, a preliminary refining process was developed to remove the silicon.
