Nickel broadly refers to a metal element, but in the metal industry it generally refers to a substance with nickel as the main material, which is extracted from nickel ore.

After extraction, it becomes metallic nickel. Generally speaking, the most commonly used extraction method is called "electrolysis method", so generally speaking, what we call "metal nickel" can be roughly equivalent to "electrolytic nickel"

Jinchuan Nickel Jinchuan Company is the largest evildoer in China, so the "electrolytic nickel" it produces is uniquely called Jinchuan Nickel

Jinchuan Nickel is roughly divided into two specifications: plate & block The two are similar in taste, but have different specifications, and the price difference is one thousand. Usually the name Jinchuan Nickel in our industry refers to Jinchuan Nickel - plate shape, which is 1# Jinchuan Nickel, with grade Ni9999 (meaning the nickel content is 99.99%).

Imported nickel, as the name suggests, is imported metal nickel, usually represented by Russian nickel.

Seeing that many people clicked in to see the answer, I explained it casually, hoping that more people can understand the nickel industry.

I have just started in the industry, so many questions are not explained clearly. It is more likely that there are mistakes. Someone with expertise can correct them if they see them.
