Indonesia currently possesses 140.3 million tons of nickel resources and 49.26 million tons of nickel reserves.

These figures are recorded in the Coordinating Ministry for Maritime Affairs and Investment's (Kemenko Marves) presentation material titled "Evaluation of the Implementation and Development Direction of Nickel Downstreaming," April 2024 edition.

According to the Nickel Institute, the term "resources" refers to the concentration or occurrence of material in the earth's crust or within the earth that has the potential to be economically extracted.

When it is confirmed that a resource can indeed be extracted, its status changes to "reserves."

Indonesia's nickel resources and reserves are predominantly located in Southeast Sulawesi Province.

Similar natural wealth is found in North Maluku, Central Sulawesi, South Sulawesi, West Papua, East Kalimantan, and Central Kalimantan provinces, with details as shown in the graph.

As of April 2024, there are no records of nickel resources and reserves in other provinces.

Based on the Kemenko Marves presentation material, as of April 2024, there are 330 Nickel Mining Business Licenses (IUP) spread across Maluku, North Maluku, West Papua, Central Sulawesi, South Sulawesi, and Southeast Sulawesi.

During the same period, 54 nickel smelters or refining facilities are operational, 38 are under construction, 55 are in the planning stages, and 6 are shut down.
