A Reiew of Exploitation Techniques of Barite Deposits of Nasarawa State, Nigeria. Material Science. 4( ):1 . DOI : htts:dirmsci A Review of Exploitation Techniques of Barite Deposits of Nasarawa State, Nigeria.

Barite is an inorganic mineral mainly constituted by barium sulfate (BaSO4) which finds applications across a variety of industries. Low quality barite can be beneficiated to meet high-purity requirement. Thus, in this work, we developed an optimum beneficiation process for upgrading barite-bearing ore from Azare in Bauchi State, Nigeria. The optimum condition for …
They should therefore be strengthened. 5. Conclusions and Policy Recommendations 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.
barite in the area are mainly unconformities and major faults. The major faults of the Calabar Flank and the unconformities along the boundary between the basement and the sediments are favourable sites for the accumulation of the barite deposits in the study area. This is why some deposits are found to occur in lenses and impervious covers.
