Read More2020-7-10 The Benue Trough of Nigeria is a sedimentary basin that extends from the Gulf of Guinea in the southwest to the Chad Basin in the northwest for about 800 km in length and 150 km in width. Lead-zinc-barytes occurs in almost the entire length of the Benue Trough. Lead-zinc-barytes mineralization in the Trough is believed to be hydrothermal in
Read More2001-4-11 Lead-zinc mineralization in the upper Benue Trough is confined towell-defined steeply dipping fractures and faults striking inan N-S direction. A close examination of the mineralized structures of abandoned mine workings revealed that the strike length of the veins varies from a few meters with thickness ranging from

Although a great deal of research has been devoted to determining the source of the ore components ( Maurin and Lancelot, 1987 , Dada et al., 2015 , El-Nafaty, 2015 ), the source of the metal (Ba) is still poorly constrained.

The Pb-Zn deposits in Ishiagu area appear to be the southern limit of mineralization in the Benue Trough and the Pb-Zn mineralized zone extends over a distance of 500 km in a narrow belt from Ishiagu in the lower Benue Trough to Zurak in the upper Benue
Read MoreThe Benue Trough galena-sphalerite-baryte occurrences are formed by open space filling in faults, hence they are generally considered to be epigenetic fracture filling deposits (Ezepue 1984; Oha et al. 2017).

The Gboko Formation has been described as the oldest lithologic unit . in the lower Benue Trough, (Reyment, 1965; Ramanathan and Nair, 1984). The Gboko Formation rests directly on the Precambrian granitic basement,

Initial exploration efforts mainly by geologists from the Geological Survey of Nigeria (GSN) between the late 1930's and the early 80's led to the discovery of some small to medium-sized deposits in a fairly extensive belt stretching from the southeastern part of the Trough to the northeastern ...

Read MoreLead-zinc mineralization is dominant in the Albian Shales with fewer occurrences in the Turonian strata. No mineralization has been reported in post-Turonian sediments. Farrington (1952) referred to the trough succession as geosynclinal and indicated the absence of graben faults at trough margins.
