Indonesia is blessed with a diverse mineral resource base. Comparedwith other countries of Asia from Kazakhstan to the Philippines,Indonesia is a leader in copper, gold, silver, nickel, tin and coalproduction.

Challenges for the Indonesian domestic mining sector include theshortage of capital, and reluctance to accept high risk investment.

Therefore, major mining developments in Indonesia have largelydepended on foreign investment.

The geology of the country remains very attractive for future explorationactivities.

From being the best-performing base metal in the previous decade, nickel has been one ofthe worst performing this decade

Nickel went from best to worst almost entirely due to massive growth in Chinese nickel pigiron production, fuelled by imports of nickel ore from Indonesia

The recovery in prices was delayed by an overhang of Indonesian ore stocks and higher oreexports from the Philippines

The Ban and its Impact

Page 14: Faisal Emzita - Indonesian Nickel Association - Understanding the ban - The latest update on the implementation of nickel ore export policy

From January 12, 2014 the Indonesian government ban the export of unprocessednickel products (Ni content <4%). Banned in line with the 2009 Indonesian MiningLaw (UU No. 4 tahun 2009)

Currently there is no sign or any changes in the policies. The new governmentunder the current President Jokowi has not given any initiative or any sign tochange the existing mining policy.

The Indonesian supply flood from 2011 to 2014 has been stop with the ban.Chinese NPI (nickel pig iron) was a low–capex/high opex solution to meetingdemand growth in China; however, China has a limited mine reserves of nickel soit is highly reliant on raw material import, especially from Indonesia. There is nosubstitute for Indonesian ore.

The Indonesian mineral market suffered heavily from the ban. But it is a newchallenge for the country, the ore is still there. The heavily exploitation nonrenewable resources have not brought Indonesia to more prosperity. World widethe natural resources (mineral) is depleting, also nickel.

Indonesia paid a very high price, allot of lay off, many companies shut downbankruptcies' unavoidable. The government and its policies is not well prepared,also from the stakeholders. 5 years is not enough, speaking without any incentivesfor the transition into the value added industry.

We are now facing a large structural changes and a transition to new industrial era.We are facing new challenges. It is a hard school, is a lesson and no point ofreturn. It needs courage.

The agenda is to lift the economy, buildinfrastructure, reduce inequality, improvingspending, cut corruption, bureaucracy reformand more bureaucracy efficiency.

The ban brought nickel market into a large structural change. The impact on the market isdelayed by large stocks of nickel ore in China and elsewhere of around 250-300kt nickeland of course large refined stocks on LME and in China. The export ban removes up to450kt of ferronickel/nickel pig iron production from the market, that is equal to 25% of 2013global nickel use – and there are limited substitutes for this nickel Indonesia seems to bethe preference for Chinese investors mainly because of a bigger and higher grade of nickelresources this is to secure their market demand. China imported nearly 70% of nickel orefrom abroad.

Indonesia is now a NPI producer and exporter, albeit small for now. In April, China’sTsingshan Holdings began shipping Indonesian made NPI to China. Combined with twoother small producers, the country is forecast to produce 22kt this year, 31kt in 2016. (vs.500kt at China’s NPI output peak)

A unit of China steel producer Tsingshan Bintang Delapan Group is set to triple its capacityto produce nickel pig iron in Indonesia as soon as May next year, with an installed capacityof 900,000 tonnes of nickel pig iron.

The plant has been operating at 60-70 percent of its current capacity of 300,000 tonnes.The firm is developing three smelters at the site, which once completed will have acombined annual output capacity of 1.2 million tonnes of nickel pig iron, containing 120,000tonnes of nickel. The group expects all three smelters to be completed by June 2017.

Chinese stainless steel mills often feed nickel pig iron into furnaces to strengthen theirproduct as a cheaper alternative to refined nickel .

Price Forecasts US$MT(Average period price)

Page 36: Faisal Emzita - Indonesian Nickel Association - Understanding the ban - The latest update on the implementation of nickel ore export policy

Given nickel’s large price fall, and that 70% of all primary nickel is shipped to steelproducers, a widely held assumption is that stainless steel demand has collapsed. Infact monthly/quarterly reported stainless steel production rates, estimatedconsumption by region, and key global trade flows, have weakened a low but stillpositive y-o-y growth rate, rather then reporting a collapse. Nickel’s price fall reflectsstainless steel mill destocking. Any short term reversal of this trade Behaviour wouldlikely deliver a bounce for the nickel market. Demand for nickel cannot be studied byusing stainless as a proxy for total demand: other applications for nickel havedifferent industry drivers and rely on different feedstock than stainless steel.

Page 37: Faisal Emzita - Indonesian Nickel Association - Understanding the ban - The latest update on the implementation of nickel ore export policy

Nickel prices have retraced from the peak following the introduction of Indonesia’sexports ban. The anticipated undersupply did not materialise as increasing exportsfrom the Philippines, combined with growth slowdowns and tighter environmentalcontrols in China to put downward pressure on prices.

However, a depletion of higher quality ore stocks means the increased reliance onlower grade ore (largely sourced from the Philippines) will soon reach its limits –lower-grade material needs to be blended with high-grade ore in nickel pig ironproduction. Greater scarcity should see ore prices start to lift, weighing on NPIproduction – forcing steel producers to find new nickel supply. The timing of whenhigh-grade ore will be depleted is difficult to pick, but is expected to take place inthe first half of the next year.

Many questions surrounding the future

Who are investing, where and how serious is the investments undertaking

How to overcome constraint on infrastructurelike electricity, water, road, technology, skill and manpower

Are the nickel prices good enough to maintain incentives for mine production investment and expansion

How commit & consistence is the central and local government on the domestic obligation in mineral processing

How is the community excepting the mines and processing activitiesFiscal incentive , friendly investment climate and Political stability

Last but not least the world economy and China

Page 39: Faisal Emzita - Indonesian Nickel Association - Understanding the ban - The latest update on the implementation of nickel ore export policy

The continuing interest of investors in mining must befurther stimulated by the Government to sustain mining inthe long term.

Smelter is a Capital Goods, Government to consider Fiscal Incentives lowering down the Capital Expenditure (i.e. Tax Holiday, Duty Exemption)
