Mining activities have long been recognized as a major source of environmental contamination associated with heavy metals and metalloids. This study evaluated the relationship between the occurrence and mining of lead-zinc sulphide ores at Ishiagu, Nigeria, and heavy metal and metalloid contamination.
They occur as sandsto nes - carbonaceous shale - co al cycles sandwiched within the cross-bedded san dstone lithofacies at Ozzi za and within a shaly facie s at W owo River (along the Afikpo ...

Reducing preg-robbing in carbonaceous gold ores using … Carbonaceous gold ore of particle size 80% passing 212 μm obtained from one of the gold mining companies in Ghana was used for the study. The ore sample was ground to 80% passing 75 μm, homogenised and … Details
Aiming at the obvious creep effect of Permian soft interlayers under repeated rainfall in Southwest China, the shear creep test under osmotic pressure is carried out on the carbonaceous mud shale in the Huangshan limestone mining area in Sichuan Province, and the shear creep test curves are obtained, and by analyzing its creep characteristics and nonlinear breaking law, based on the ...
The δ 13C isotopic composition of the carbonates range from -2.0 to -5.2 per mil, and a mean of -2.8 per mil. And the δD values in post-sulfide quartz ranges from -35 to -40 per mil, with an average of -37.5 per mil which implicates derivation from the oxidation of organic matter in the black carbonaceous shale while wate...
The microprobe study of gold grains taken from carbonaceous shales and weathering crusts made it possible to attribute them to the high-grade (919–1000) type, which is the leading one in the ...
With over 260 tons of gold reserves, the Shuiyindong gold mine is one of the largest Carlin-type gold deposits in China. A particular challenge in the processing of the ore is the presence of carbonaceous compounds, which can cause substantial losses in recoveries via the preg-robbing and adsorption of gold. To investigate the structural properties of the native …
• Bitumen bid round to enable Nigeria to harness its bitumen resources through private sector investment. • Initiation of a fresh concession programme for the Ajaokuta steel plant and its …
Improved understanding of Nigeria's Cretaceous paleogeographic evolution. Addressed the controversy surrounding the Maastrichtian Trans -Saharan seaway route. …
Carbonaceous rocks in the form of graphitic schist and carbonaceous phyllite are the major host rocks of the gold mineralization in Kundarkocha gold deposit of the Precambrian Singhbhum orogenic belt in eastern India. The detection of organic carbon, essentially in the carbonaceous phyllite and graphitized schist within the Precambrian terrain, is noted from this …
Preg-robbing is an important phenomenon that inhibits gold recovery due to the presence of naturally occurring carbonaceous matter. In case of certain ores, gold recovery by cyanidation is limited by the presence of naturally occurring carbonaceous material that adsorbs gold from alkaline cyanide solution unless steps are taken to prevent this adsorption reaction …
Banded rock texture complicated by cleavage (a) and quartz-mica-tourmaline veinlets in carbonaceous shale (b); incorporation contacts between quartz grains in interlayers and lenses (c) and layer-by-layer accumulations of quartz (arrows …
Mining in the Enyigba-Ameri area (EAA) is thought to have some adverse environmental impacts, especially on groundwater and the ecosystem. EAA is entirely …
Infrastructure deficit: Inadequate infrastructure, including transportation, power supply, and access to water, has been a significant challenge. These deficiencies increase operational costs and make mining less attractive for potential investors. Security concerns: Many mining regions in Nigeria face security challenges, including illegal mining activities, …
carbonaceous gold ores in terms of hydrocarbon, organic acid and activated carbon type content and assess the ... effective and proactive management of the deleterious influence of carbonaceous material on gold recovery in mining operations. …
The Kumak ore is dominated by fine high-karat gold (Аu 90–96%) associ-ated with gold–bismuth–telluride and native gold–tourmaline assemblages [18]. The oxidation zone contains a little of supergene gold at an average amount of 2% of total gold. At the ore outcrops at ground surface, there
Nigeria. The basin consists mainly of Albian carbonaceous shale of the Asu River Group (Abakaliki shale) subordinate sandstone, siltstone and limestone. The Cretaceous dark shales host hydrothermal Pb/Zn mineralization (figure 1). Mining of Pb-Zn in the study area has lasted for more 85 years. The waste from the
The grey shale is commonly found overlying the carbonaceous shale in most of the outcrops studied, and also has nodular concretions. This shale gradually graded into sandy shale upwards and in someplaces it is weathered to reddish brown coarse sandstone or ferruginized sandstone and the top of which is capped with laterites.
The Swauk Mining District in Central Washington state is a historic mining community with active small scale mining dating back to the 1870's. Gold has been mined from both lode and placer deposits. The placer deposits of Liberty area are unique due to the variety of gold textures, most notably are the nuggets of tangled masses of dendritic crystals and wire …
Nigeria is endowed with vast reserves of natural resources such as energy minerals like coal and lithium, metallic minerals like gold and lead-zinc and industrial minerals like limestone and barite. The country was a major exporter of tin, columbite and coal in the 1960s to early 1970s. ... The significant export earnings from crude oil led to ...
Out of these, seven (7) strategic solid minerals are being prioritized and promoted for private sector participation and investment by the Federal Government of Nigeria. The selected solid minerals are gold, coal, bitumen, limestone, iron ore, lead/zinc and barytes (Fayemi, 2016). Indeed, mining could be one of Nigeria's major success stories.
The rise in demand for natural gas has spurred the need to investigate the inland sedimentary basin for more potential sources. In response, the petrophysical parameters of the carbonaceous shale ...

Abstract Processing of gold from refractory ores containing carbonaceous materials (CM) poses challenges due to the ability of the CM to preg ...
Shale is the most common sedimentary rock, accounting for about 70 percent of the rock in the Earth's crust. Shale is a fine-grained rock made from compacted mud and clay. The defining characteristic of shale is its ability to break into layers or fissility. Black and gray shale are common, but the rock can occur in any color.
