CONNECTING RESOURCE PARTNERS TO MARKET.
AT Corporation participates in nickel opportunities through structured cooperation with mining and license-holding partners, including Joint Operation and commodity sale-and-purchase arrangements.
Commercial execution and market access are supported through PT Aneka Tambang Perkasa (ATP), the Group’s Mining & General Commodities Trading Arm.
PARTNERSHIP-BASED RESOURCE ACCESS
FROM PARTNER RESOURCE TO MARKET.
Current nickel participation is structured with mine or IUP-holder partners through Joint Operation and/or Sale & Purchase Contracts, subject to legal, technical, quality and commercial validation.
Partnership access and contracted supply do not constitute AT Corporation ownership of the underlying IUP or resource.

STRATEGIC RESOURCE
RESOURCE QUALITY BEFORE RESOURCE SCALE.
Nickel represents a strategic mineral opportunity where resource characteristics, processing route, infrastructure and market requirements must be considered together.
AT Corporation’s Nickel strategy is structured around disciplined resource evaluation rather than pursuing scale without technical and commercial alignment.
Current Nickel participation is partnership-based through mine or IUP-holder cooperation, Joint Operation and/or Sale & Purchase Contracts. AT Corporation does not own the underlying partner IUP and does not present any Nickel concession, mine, resource, reserve, production, stockpile or processing facility as an owned verified public asset.
STRATEGIC RATIONALE
INDUSTRIAL METAL. MULTIPLE VALUE PATHWAYS.
INDUSTRIAL DEMAND
Nickel serves multiple industrial applications and product pathways depending on ore characteristics and processing route.
RESOURCE DEVELOPMENT
Value begins with geological understanding, resource definition and technically appropriate mine planning.
PROCESSING OPTIONALITY
Different ore characteristics can require materially different processing technologies, infrastructure and capital intensity.
MARKET CONNECTIVITY
Commercial value depends on product specification, processing route, logistics and downstream customer requirements.
RESOURCE SYSTEM
UNDERSTAND THE ORE BEFORE CHOOSING THE PROCESS.
Note: The following represents general geological and technical architecture for lateritic nickel profiles and does not imply verified geology of an AT Corporation asset.
ORE CHARACTERISTICS
RESOURCE EVALUATION
GEOLOGY DRIVES THE BUSINESS CASE.
RESOURCE DEFINITION
TONNAGE WITHOUT BASIS IS NOT RESOURCE DATA.
DEVELOPMENT OPTIONS
ORE TYPE SHAPES THE PROCESSING PATH.
SAPROLITIC / HIGHER-MAGNESIA ORE PATHWAY
LIMONITIC ORE PATHWAY
These reflect general industry processing pathways. AT Corporation does not currently claim ownership or operation of RKEF, HPAL, smelters or refineries.
PRODUCT ARCHITECTURE
FROM ORE TO DIFFERENT NICKEL PRODUCTS.
END MARKETS
ONE METAL. MULTIPLE INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS.
- STAINLESS STEEL
- SPECIALTY ALLOYS
- BATTERY MATERIALS
- INDUSTRIAL METALS
- OTHER APPROVED APPLICATIONS
VALUE CREATION
THE RIGHT PROCESSING ROUTE MATTERS MORE THAN THE LONGEST VALUE CHAIN.
Downstream integration can create additional value, but only where resource characteristics, infrastructure, capital intensity and market conditions support the investment case.
DEVELOPMENT INFRASTRUCTURE
A RESOURCE DOES NOT OPERATE IN ISOLATION.
OPERATING CAPABILITY
RESOURCE DEVELOPMENT REQUIRES EXECUTION.
AT Corporation’s broader mining-services architecture provides operating capability that may support future resource developments where project requirements and commercial structures are aligned.
PT Batu Mutiara Hitam does not currently operate a Nickel mine.
COMMERCIAL CONNECTIVITY
FROM MINERAL PRODUCT TO MARKET.
PT Aneka Tambang Perkasa supports nickel commodity origination, partnership-based supply, sale-and-purchase contracts, Joint Operation commercial support, trading and market connectivity, subject to the applicable contractual structure.
ATP is the commercial executor and is not represented as the owner of a nickel IUP.
DEVELOPMENT DISCIPLINE
IDENTIFY. VALIDATE. DEVELOP. CONNECT.
OPPORTUNITY IDENTIFICATION
Identify resource opportunities that fit the Group’s strategic and commercial criteria.
LEGAL & LICENSE REVIEW
Confirm license status, ownership, land position and regulatory requirements.
GEOLOGICAL VALIDATION
Validate geology, mineralization, grade distribution and resource continuity.
RESOURCE DEFINITION
Develop a technically supportable resource model using appropriate data and reporting standards.
TECHNICAL / PROCESS ASSESSMENT
Determine mining method, product pathway, processing route and infrastructure requirements.
ECONOMIC VALIDATION
Evaluate capital, operating cost, logistics, product value and project economics.
PROJECT DEVELOPMENT
Advance development only where resource, technical, legal and market requirements are sufficiently aligned.
RESOURCE SCREENING
NOT EVERY RESOURCE SHOULD BECOME A PROJECT.
RESPONSIBLE DEVELOPMENT
MINERAL VALUE REQUIRES RESPONSIBLE DEVELOPMENT.
RESOURCE REQUIREMENTS
WATER IS PART OF THE TECHNICAL EQUATION.
