About 300 workers at Panoramic Resources’ Savannah nickel mine in Western Australia are expected to lose their jobs after the company’s administrators moved to suspend production at the site. FTI Consulting was appointed to the role in mid-December, with the aim of keeping Savannah open, but the price of nickel has continued to fall. Panoramic reopened the Savannah mine in the Kimberley region in 2021, but factors such as a sharp fall in the nickel price in 2023 weighed on the company. There are fears of further job losses in Australia’s nickel sector, amid expectations of a global oversupply in 2024; Indonesia in particular intends to ramp up nickel production via Chinese investment in the sector.
