The laterite nickel ore at Goro is composed of two layers–limonite and saprolite–between a cover of leached material and the bedrock below. The 10-20-m-thick cover has its own two layers: brittle iron oxide crust covers a high-hematite zone. Beneath these is the 10-m-thick limonite layer, which grades about 1.5% Ni.

leaching (HPAL), Caron process, and direct nickel process (DNi) are the most common processes to treat lateritic ore [4]. HL process can be processed at ambient temperature, but it is a kinetically slow process, and the yield is low compared to AL and HPAL [5]. AL requires 1 bar pressure and tem-perature in the range of approximately (50–90 °C).
