Geology and Occurrences of Limestone and Marble in
2006). Marble is a metamorphosed limestone. Limestone and marble are carbonate rocks, dominated by the mineral calcite (CaCO 3). Nigeria is endowed with large deposits of limestone and marble located in all parts of the country. The limestone at Mfamosing, near Calabar, is the largest and the purest deposit in Nigeria.

Its deposits are in about 600 million tonnes of discovered reserves. Some states with limestone are Benue, Kogi, Gombe, Enugu, Cross River, and Sokoto state. It is observed that a majority of these reserves are in the middle belt and southwest region of Nigerian due to its terrain. Limestone is of one the mineral resources in Nigeria used forStates where limestone is found in Nigeria. We have mentioned some of the states where limestone is found, now let’s get into more details about these locations: Benue State the popular mineral is found in Igumale, Tokura, Yandev, Adiga, and Ogbologuta areas.

Limestone. by Admin. November 13, 2015. Classified as one of the strategic mineral in Nigeria, Limestone is a rock with an enormous diversity of uses. The largest and purest deposits of limestone are found in the Southwest and Middle belt regions of the country. Limestone in the Southwest region of Nigeria has been estimated at 31 Available data show that coal occurrences in Nigeria have been indicated in more than 22 coal fields (Falade and Adeyeye 2016).

Analysis of Physical Parameters of Limestone Deposits in
Jones and Hockey (1964) revealed Ewekoro limestone and the overlying Akinbo shale to be lateral equivalents of the Imo formation of eastern Nigeria. Other authors such as Omatsola and Adegoke (1991) and Oladeji (1992) have investigated the stratigraphy and depositional characteristics of limestone and clay/shale deposits in Abstract. A general survey of limestone deposits in Nigeria is presented. From these deposits five locations representing the geographical distribution of these deposits were selected and hydrated lime prepared from them. An A-7-6 lateritic soil was stabilized with these locally prepared hydrated limes as well as a commercial lime and Limestone deposits and small-scale production of lime in Nigeria

Petrography and geochemistry of Paleocene-Eocene (Ewekoro) limestone
1.2. Geological setting. The Nigerian portion of the Benin (Dahomey) basin extends from the boundary between Nigeria and Benin Republic (in the area of the Gulf of Guinea), eastwards and terminates at the Okitipupa Ridge/Benin Hinge Line, which is the continental extension of the Chain Fracture Zone (CFZ), a major fault structure marking Limestone occurs only in the sedimentary basins in Nigeria. It occurs mainly in the Benue Trough (Lower, Middle and Upper), Sokoto, Dahomey and Borno (Chad) Basins. Limestone-forming environments (shallow coastal marine conditions), appear to have occurred several times in the geological history of the basins. However, the limestone deposits of the Geology and Occurrences of Limestone and Marble in Nigeria
