# PT Vale Accelerates Nickel Downstream Project in Pomalaa

PT Vale Indonesia Tbk has reaffirmed its commitment to sustainable development in Indonesia’s nickel downstream sector through its ongoing Indonesia Growth Project (IGP) in Pomalaa. The project, which centers around High Pressure Acid Leach (HPAL) technology, aims to optimize the use of limonite nickel ore—a resource that has previously been underutilized. The initiative has earned praise from Mining Industry Indonesia (MIND ID) for its strong project management, adherence to safety and environmental standards, and disciplined regulatory compliance. PT Vale’s Pomalaa project is positioned as a long-term strategic investment, designed to strengthen the national nickel supply chain and promote sustainable economic growth in line with Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles.
