Answered by GPT-5 mini AI
If you mean the element/mineral native nickel, its formula is simply Ni.

If you meant common nickel-bearing minerals, some typical formulas are:
- Pentlandite: (Fe,Ni)9S8
- Millerite: NiS
- Niccolite (nickeline): NiAs
- Vaesite: NiS2
- Heazlewoodite: Ni3S2
- Bunsenite: NiO
- Gaspéite (a carbonate): NiCO3
- Awaruite (a Ni–Fe alloy): Ni3Fe
- Garnierite: variable, hydrous Ni-Mg silicates (no single formula)

Tell me which specific mineral you meant if you want details about one of them.
