Abstract
The Payne Institute's recent observations that inferred likely Artisanal and Small-scale Mining (ASM) contributions to Indonesia's nickel production received an array of feedback from nickel industry and Indonesian stakeholders. This feedback illustrated prevailing views within the nickel mining industry regarding ASM companies' limited capability and pointed to how even informal ASM is integrated into larger local actors' planning. Further, it highlighted the impacts of the deficiencies of the current system, which nominally has a legal structure for ASM but in practice discourages formalization.
