An established and well managed solid minerals sub-sector will accelerate economic, social and political growth of Nigeria by provision of gainful employment and a rise in national income earnings far exceeding the petroleum sector. In addition, solid minerals will provide local raw materials for industries and bring vital infrastructure and wealth to rural areas.
One of such minerals that have been identified for development is tin ore. 10,546 tonnes of which are found in Plateau State; is employed in plating, production of tin oxide used in paint, paper and ink industries, production of tin oxide resistors, electric lead wires and Foraminifera Market Research seeks to expose the investment opportunity in the export of the product through this feasibility report.
Tin ore {Cassiterite} is the second –easiest ore to mine. It is mined from tin veins. Cassiterite is a tin oxide mineral, SnO2. It is generally opaque but it is translucent in thin crystals. Its luster and multiple crystal faces produce a desirable gem. Cassiterite has been the chief tin ore throughout ancient history and remains the most important source of tin today.
Most sources of cassiterite today are found in alluvial or placer deposits containing the resistant weathered grains.
Tin mineralisation in Nigeria is within the Younger Granites of Jos Plateau. They are two types: primary deposits found as disseminations in the biotite granite and pegmatities and placer deposits found among gravel pockets in both ancient and modern stream channels.
Most of the tin today is recovered from the placer formations by stripping and open pit mining. Ore grade is high (about 1.5 kgm-3) and beneficiation is by gravity or magnetic floatation or a combination of the two.
Associated gangue minerals include magnetite (Fe3O4), ilmenite (FeTiO3), Zircon (ZrSiO4), thorite (ThSiO4) and monazite (Le, La, Y, Th(PO4)). Gem quality beryl and semi-precious gem quality topaz are also associated with the cassiterite.
The return on investment on the export of tin ore is estimated between 10%- 15%.
