Nickel mining development begins in 2010 by a subsidiary of PT. Harita Group. Massive forest destruction results in seawater pollution for small islands in eastern Indonesia. Indonesia is the largest nickel ore miner and contributes to the world's largest battery technology market. (Photo by Muhammad Fauzy/NurPhoto)
