Barite as an industrial mineral in Nigeria: occurrence, utilization, challenges and future prospects
The mining and processing of barite generates vast quantities of mine rocks and mine tailings. Barite has been mined near communities in Cross River State (southeastern Nigeria). These abandoned mine sites constitute some of the largest barite mines in Nigeria.
This study on artisanal and small-scale mining (ASM) of barite ores in Nasarawa state, Nigeria has identified the barite ore value chain and several challenges that affect the sustainable development of …
Abstract: The exploration and mining of Nigerian barite are primarily by artisanal and small-scale miners (ASM) whose operations are characterized by poor productivity.
This study considered the occurrence, utilization and challenges facing the mining of barite in Nigeria. It also discussed the global reserve, production and consumption of barite and types...
The manuscript provides an exciting overview of mining activities and associated hazards in Nigeria. The authors identified the main hazards to miners' environment, health, and life, primarily in the barite mining sector.
The exploration and mining of Nigerian barite are primarily by artisanal and small-scale miners (ASM) whose operations are characterized by poor productivity. As a result, the quantity and quality of barites produced do not satisfy the nation's oil sector demands and other industries that require the mineral.
This study on artisanal and small-scale mining (ASM) of barite ores in Nasarawa state, Nigeria has identified the barite ore value chain and several challenges that affect the sustainable development of ASM of barite in Nasarawa state.
The present study focuses on the Iyamitet-Okurumutet barite mine area (south-eastern Nigeria) with both active and abandoned mining sites. They appear to be poor monitoring and management of mining activities and their effluents in the area.
Over 90% of barite mining activities in Nigeria are carried out by artisanal and small-scale miners (ASMs), and up to 75% of these miners operate informally, without mining license and rights.
The ten barite samples were obtained from different mining locations in the Nasarawa and Taraba states of Nigeria. Their properties were determined and compared with a standard working sample used by an oil industry operator in Nigeria.
Helicon International Limited or Helicon Nigeria Limited is an arm of Helicon Group, a full fledged mining company certified for mining and extraction of crude barites which they supply to oil drilling companies and other barite processing companies.
The exploration and mining of Nigerian barite are primarily by artisanal and small-scale miners (ASM) whose operations are characterized by poor productivity. As a result, the quantity and quality of barites produced do not satisfy the nationâ€s oil sector demands and other industries that require the mineral.
The specific gravity of barite should range from 4.1 to 4.6 to be applicable as a drilling mud additive. This study considered the occurrence, utilization and challenges facing the mining of barite in Nigeria. It also discussed …
Learn how Nigeria's vast mineral resources could drive sector growth and attract investment, as the government implements mining reforms and Covid-19 recovery plans.
This work identified heavy metal contaminants in mine water samples and effluents of barite tailings randomly selected from three barite mining sites in Northeastern and Northcentral Nigeria.
