"The mine will begin production in 2009, and ramp up to an output rate of 18 000 t/y of contained nickel by early 2010."
"Note: Our Redstone mill, producing just 20 metric tonnes per day nickel in concentrate, produced [annualized] 7300 t/y or over 40% of what Xstrata's "flagship" mine will produce."
Note that ours is concentrate, not contained nickel. You might want to re-calculate.
