Tough start to 2016 for Aussie nickel miners to continue

At the current price of just US$3.86 a pound, 70% of the nation’s nickel producers are making a loss.
This week alone, there have been redundancies in Western Australia’s Kambalda region and Queensland Nickel, which includes the Yabulu refinery, was placed into administration.
