Nigeria
is blessed with abundant mineral resources, which are from time
immemorial formed the backbone of the nation’s economic and industrial
development aspirations. Prior to independence, the nation’s mineral raw
material resources contributed immensely to the export earnings of the
nation.
For
over three decades, the Country has continued to depend entirely on oil
for her revenue and the volatile nature of the oil market has made it
imperative for us to diversify the mono-product economy through
exploitation and processing of our abundant solid mineral resources. The
clamour for resource control being advocated by states with petroleum
resources in their domain makes it imperative for us to develop,
exploit, process and utilize our solid minerals – particularly
Non-metallic Minerals as every part of this country is blessed with one
or more solid mineral that could yield substantial revenue for
sustainable development.
Exploitation
of the Non-metallic Minerals has not attained the desired level, mainly
because of the various constraints associated with their exploitation,
development and processing for utilization. Many of the non-metallic
minerals, which are vital to the industrial take off of the country,
have been found in commercial quantities within the country.
They
include limestone, dolomite, marble, kaolin, barite, diatomite,
feldspar, quartz and silica sands, gypsum, talc, silimanite, kyanite,
phosphate, salt and bentonite.
Limestone
is widespread in the sedimentary basins of Nigeria. It is used
extensively in cement production, as flux and refractory material,
metallurgical applications etc.
Prominent
reserve has been proved to exist all over the country. The marble and
dolomite deposits in Nigeria are often associated with the
meta-sediments such as schist, amphibolites complex and
metal-conglomerates. They are also used as flux in steel making.
Nigeria has an estimated reserve of Limestone in excess of over one billion {1,000,000,000} metric tons of Limestone scattered in different parts of the country to include Benue, Ogun, Kogi and Cross River states.
Lime
is a general term for calcium-containing inorganic materials, in which
carbonates, oxides and hydroxides predominate. Strictly speaking, lime
is calcium oxide or calcium hydroxide. It is also the name of the
natural mineral (native lime) of the CaO composition which occurs as a
product of coal seam fires and in altered limestone xenoliths in
volcanic ejecta. The word "lime" originates with its earliest use as
building mortar and has the sense of "sticking or adhering."
Lime
are produced from Limestone and upon hydration , quicklime liberates
large amount of heat and forms calcium hydroxide, sold commercially as a
white powder called Slaked lime or hydrated lime. Hydrated lime has
become one of the most importanta industrial minerals because of its
chemical and physical properties. as well as its commercial importance
and the simplicity of its production.
There
is enormous demand for hydrated lime in Nigeria based on its wide rage
of uses. The user industries inlcude agriculture, water treatment,
building, tannery, sugar refining, paper and glass. The bulk demand for
hydrated lime in Nigeria is for water treatment in public water supply,
soft drink bottling, tannery, breweries and food processing. The
national demand estimate for hydrated lime is in excess of 100,000 MT
per annum while the toal supply is less than 35,000 MT per annum. Most
of the product is sourced from abroad thereby creating a viable option
for the local production of hydrated lime in Nigeria.
