Abstract: Base principles of selecting compositions of the charge and processing products depending on the initial ore composition and required ferronickel composition are developed. Main production parameters of smelting are the gas temperature under the roof of 1000– 1100 °C and rarefaction of 0,5–1,5 Pa. The processing technology of the oxidized nickel ore with the acquisition of 20 % ferronickel (according to ISO 6501:1988) using the dc ore-thermal furnace is substantiated. The advantage of this process is in the fabrication of metal with a high nickel content, an increase in recovery of valuable components into the alloy, and processing fine and dust-like materials.
