Nickel is a Tier 5 metal. It is used with copper to make the alloy cupronickel .

Obtaining

Due to its high melting temperature, only coke can be used as a fuel to melt it. It can also be melted in a bloomery if coke isn't available.

Ores

The principal ore of nickel is pentlandite. Pentlandite can be found in deep deposits in andesite, granite, basalt, and peridotite. Peridotite deposits are the only ones that can bear rich or bountiful pentlandite.

Nickel ore can be mined with a tier 4 (Iron) pickaxe .

Usage

Currently, nickel is only used to make cupronickel, with nickel ingots serving only as a means of storage. It cannot be used for casting , and can't be forged into anything on an anvil .

Alloys

Nickel is a secondary ingredient of cupronickel (alloyed with copper ).
