[4/10] Les lanceurs d’alerte décrivent une stratégie de dissimulation : accidents non déclarés, données environnementales falsifiées, décès camouflés. Plusieurs anciens employés accusent WBN d’avoir manipulé les inspections internes d’Eramet. #geography #resourceextraction #nickelmining

[5/10] Selon Henrik, ex-employé d’Eramet, 15 rivières seraient contaminées par des métaux lourds et du cyanure. En 2021, WBN a reçu un bulletin rouge des autorités indonésiennes pour mauvaise gestion environnementale. #geography #resourceextraction #nickelmining

[9/10] En 2024, WBN a généré 386 millions d’euros de bénéfices pour ses actionnaires. Mais pour les habitants, la ruée vers le nickel est un désastre écologique. Le chrome 6, le mercure et le plomb rendent l’eau impropre à la consommation. #geography #resourceextraction #nickelmining

[2/10] Située sur l’île d’Halmahera, la mine Weda Bay couvre 45.000 ha. Depuis l’arrivée du groupe chinois Tsingshan en 2017, l’extraction s’est intensifiée. #Indonésie est devenue en 2023 le 1er producteur mondial de nickel, avec 55 % de la production globale. #geography #nickelmining

[7/10] Eramet affirme ne pas avoir de rôle décisionnaire, mais deux cadres dirigeants de WBN sont issus de sa filiale au Gabon. Après les révélations, ils ont été démis de leurs fonctions le 7 mai 2025, signe du pouvoir réel d’Eramet dans la gestion. #geography #resourceextraction #nickelmining
