Abstract

In the metallurgical facility in Kavadarci, Fe-Ni ores originating from several locations are
processed, namely: Rzhanovo (Macedonia), Albania, Turkey, Indonesia, Guatemala, Africa. All Fe-Ni
ores that are processed represent lateritic types of nickel-bearing ores that have a similar mineralogical
composition, with the exception of the ores from Rzhanovo and Albania, which also contain minerals that are not only of lateritic origin but also of metamorphic origin. From the perspective of the impact on the quality of the environment in the Tikvesh region, it is important to take in to account the geochemical composition of these ores in terms of the presence of trace elements that can be risky for the environment, such as arsenic, thallium, cadmium, lead, and others.
