摘要
Magmatic sulfide deposits are significantly valuable because more than 60% of the nickel and 99% of the platinum-group elements in the world are produced from these deposits, although Ni-laterite deposits are also an important type of nickel resource. The magmatic sulfide deposits are grouped into sulfide-rich Ni-Cu-(PGE) deposits and sulfide-poor PGE deposits. Although the research on the magmatic sulfide deposits has a long history, plenty of new insights and progress have been achieved in the past years.
