This paper provides chemical and mineralogical studies on Gold-bearing rock ore. The samples used was sourced from Iperindo at Ilesha Local Government Area of Osun state, Nigeria. 500g of the ore was weighed using digital weighing balance. The samples were crushed and ground until 80% passing of 75 μm sieve. The ground ore …
The study therefore evaluates extent of artisanal gold mining pollution on the environment and public health in communities within Ilesha Osun Nigeria. The study was field and laboratory based.
Particle-induced x-ray emission (PIXE) spectroscopy has been used to characterize soil samples from two relatively old gold mine sites (Iperindo and Itagunmodi) in the Ilesha schist belt of Southwestern Nigeria. This is with a view to identifying the indicator or pathfinder elements of gold for finger and toxicity potential assessment ...

This study assessed the health and environmental impacts of artisanal gold mining in Ijesha-land, Osun State, Southwestern Nigeria. Fifty-four environmental samples were collected between 2011 and 2012 and analyzed for major, trace and rare earth elements using standard procedures.
Gold is artisanally mined from eluvial deposits within Osu–Amuta–Itagunmodi areas of Ilesa Schist Belt, southwestern Nigeria. Mine site selection and mining operations are done without any understanding of mode of occurrence, compositional characteristics and extent of gold mineralisation. The present study was aimed at determining the host …
October 5, 2021 - Thor Explorations Ltd. is pleased to announce commercial production has been achieved at its wholly owned Segilola Gold Mine located in Osun State, Nigeria. The process plant is now consistently operating in-line with its design throughput capacity of 715,000 tonnes per annum.
Airborne magnetic and radiometry data sets over potential gold mineralisation associated with mesothermal alteration zones in the western Ilesha schist belt, Southwestern Nigeria, were interpreted.
In Igun Ijesha gold city, the community depend on surface and groundwater contaminated from mining activities and so far, there is no evidence of any water quality assessment. Therefore, the aim of this study is to evaluate the physicochemical parameters and trace metals in drinking water sources in Igun-Ijesha gold mine area.

Gold mining operations started in Ilesha area, southwest, Nigeria in early 1950s and since mid 1990s there has been continued illegal mining by artisanal miners in Itagunmodi, Ibodi, Igun, Araromi, Osu and other areas. 80% to 90% of small-scale mining is commonly illegal and artisanal in nature involving about 10 to 20 million people that has produced about …
The Ibala gold field is a collection of alluvial mines discovered in Osun state, southwest Nigeria by artisanal miners in the early 2000s. Hand-dug trenches to depths of more than 5 meters are used to mine the gold deposits.
The pH values observed in this study were closer to the published literature values of 5.91 (mining sites) and 6.85 (control sites) determined in the soils of the Ilesha gold mining site in Osun ...
The analysis of the discovered base metal elements in Itagunmodi, Southwest, Ife-Ilesha schist belts, Nigeria, with a case study of Amuta, was carried out to ascertain the likelihood of these ...
