Aims: To determine the amount of mercury discharged into Namukombe stream, the major water body in Syanyonja village, Busia gold district and investigate the impacts of mercury-based artisanal and small-scale gold mining (ASGM) on the mining population and the environment. Study...
Aims: The purpose of this study is to delineate litho-stratigraphic sequences penetrated by well 01, 02 and 03 within the XY field and also to describe the litho-stratigraphic characteristics of the sequences delineated using ditch cuttings, textural/lithological attributes and t...
Inadequate potable water supply remains one of the challenges of residents of Bosso Estate in Minna Metropolis, Niger State, Nigeria owing to the Basement Complex terrain underlying the area. Rapid increase in population in the area over the years, which is due to its proximity t...
Property value is a product of property characteristics, accessibility, neighborhood and environment. Property development is therefore progressive when all the above-mentioned attributes are favourable as it is a capital-intensive project. Flooding in most cases are natural occu...
One hundred and seventy six ditch cutting samples within the interval of 5425ft to 8535ft from Toms-well, OG-Field, Greater Ughelli Depobelt, onshore, Niger Delta basin, were subjected to sedimentological analysis and microscopic analysis using a binocular reflected light microsc...
This study has been able to demarcate the subsurface geologic units based on the lithologic characters. The subsurface geology of Lagos Main land is made up of complex lithologies of an alternating sequence of clay and sand deposits. The borehole lithologic correlation shows that...
The investigation was conducted on socio economic characteristics of the households that generate waste in Zuru town, kebbi state. Data was derived from two sources, primary and secondary. Primary data was collected through questionnaire administration, in-depth interviews and Fo...
The Baya watershed is located in the eastern region of Côte d’Ivoire. It covers up a total area of 6324.041 sq. km. The exploited resources in water in that basin are surface waters and groundwaters through different drillings. The thrust of this study is to scrutinize the hydrod...
An integrated 3D seismic data, checkshot data and suite of well logs for nine wells in “OYA” field, Offshore, Niger Delta were analyzed for reservoir characterization, 3D static modeling and volumetric analysis. This study is majorly in two folds: the first focuses on the applica...
Granulometric analysis of sampled sands along Port bouet coastline, during both periods (turbulent and calm periods), shows a wide particle size spectrum ranging from fine sand to very coarse sand. It should be noted, however, that the coarse fraction is largely predominant, part...

Sedimentary rocks cuttings from two boreholes in Bingerville and Assinie (Côte d’Ivoire) were the subject of this study. Sands and clays were collected from the Bingerville well and sands, green clays and limestones from the Assinie well. The main objective of this work is to mak...
Aims: A 3-D resistivity survey was carried out in Igbesa area and its environs, a sedimentary terrain of South-western Nigeria. Materials and Methods: The wenner alpha electrode configuration was engaged throughout this study. Ten profiles were covered; each profile 25 metres apa...
This study presented laboratory tests on the effects of several mineralizers added to black raw materials, in the manufacture of cement. This manufacturing process is based on crushing quarry limestones with clays and fuels in order to be fired at 1450°C to obtain clinker, the ma...
The relation between earthquake and planet motion is one of topics interesting to people. Based on conservation law of energy, this paper proves that the energy release by earthquake proportions to the square of velocity of Earth’s rotation, while velocities of revolution of Eart...
The identification of mineral in talcose rock requires definitive analytical methods due its similar structure in silicates and associated minerals. The used of microscopy and X-ray diffractometry have been found useful, practical for both exploratory and determinations of miner...
