Report summary
Our current update of the Nickel Industry Cost Service estimates that industry costs will decline by 3% to average $14,979/t Ni on a C1 + sustaining capital basis in 2025. Favorable exchange rates (-US$189/t) and lower realization costs (-US$193/t) outweigh cost inflation (+US$154/t), and lower revenue from by-product credits (+US$159/t Ni). For the sulphide producers, mixed effects from higher copper (+2%) and gold (+5%) prices offset falls in cobalt (-12%).
