Geology of Nigeria

The oldest Precambrian rocks in Nigeria likely formed during the Archean or the Paleoproterozoic, forming the Beninian gneiss, in the Benin-Nigeria Orogen, formed during the Proterozoic Pan-African orogeny. The crystalline basement rock of the country is grouped as the Nigerian Province, a southern continuation of the central Hoggar reactivated basement. The ancient rocks of the Nigerian Province are split up by thrust and shear zones. The MigmatitZuma Rock is a large natural monolith, or inselberg, an igneous intrusion composed of gabbro and granodiorite, in Niger State, Nigeria. It is located in the west of Nigeria's capital, Abuja, along the main road from Abuja to Kaduna off Madala, and is sometimes referred to as the "Gateway to Abuja from Suleja". Zuma Rock rises approx. 300 metres (980 ft) above its surroundings. It was oZuma Rock

Natural Resources in Nigeria and their Location

In Nigeria, granite is found in large quantities in Ekiti, Cross River, and Abuja. Granite is useful as a building material due to its hardness and durability. The rock is quarried and cut into blocks that are used for flooring, stairs, countertops, and 2 天之前Nigeria’s major soil zones conform to geographic location. Loose sandy soils consisting of wind-borne deposits and riverine sands are found in the northern regions, although, in areas where there is a marked dry season, a dense surface layer of laterite develops, making these soils difficult to cultivate.The soils in the northern states of Kano Nigeria History, Population, Flag, Map, Languages, Capital, & Facts
