Nigeria is richly endowed with a variety of solid minerals of various categories ranging from precious metals to various stones and also industrial minerals such as barytes, gypsum, kaolin and marble. Much of these are yet to be exploited. Statistically, the level of exploitation of these minerals is very low in relation to the extent of deposits found in the country. One of the objectives of NNDC on processing and exporting of Solid Minerals is to ensure the orderly development of the mineral resources of the country. THE SOLID MINERALS PROJECT: The Federal Government of Nigeria in efforts to repositioning the Solid Minerals Sector as one of the key drivers of the economy, had embarked on a far reaching reform that will enable the private sector play a pivotal role in the growth and development of the sector. In recognition of NNDC’s role in the Mining Sector, the Mining Cadastre Office of the Federal Ministry of Mines & Steel Development invited NNDC to express interest in the acquisition of Mineral Titles through competitive bidding process. NNDC bidded for 19 Mineral Titles in 11 Northern States and won all as shown below:
