This 10th year 2025 Mining week was amazing 🙏 showing a decade of mining revolution in Nigeria". Kudos to our ever supporting VUKA group and other unwavering support from the sponsors of this annual event.

Mr. Augustine I. OSAWE

Ministry of Steel Development, Nigeria

The conference was well organised and impactful. It clearly showcased how the sector policies of government are generating interest and investments (both local and international).

Dr. Emeka Okengwu
Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer

The sessions were much relevant to the realities of current state of the mining industry. The speakers were extremely competent . The conference sessions were well organised and the attendance was encouraging. It is hoped that the session's time should be extended for more robust interaction.

Statistics That Matter

The Nigerian mining challenge is enormous, but through collaboration and innovation, we can make a difference. Already we are seeing change, and with your help tomorrow’s future can be bright.

1

Nigeria's mining sector drives economic growth and significantly contributes to the GDP (approx. 4-5%), leveraging abundant minerals and resources.

2

Nigeria's mineral resources are underutilised due to the dominance of oil and gas, overlooked since the emergence of crude oil.

3

Some mineral resources, extracted by over 10 million artisanal and small-scale miners (ASM), involve poor practices harming local communities and the environment.

4

Mining in Nigeria faces challenges such as a complex regulatory framework, legal issues, inconsistent policies, and unclear land tenure systems, deterring investors.

5

Inadequate infrastructure, security issues, environmental concerns, and limited access to finance further hinder industry growth.

But change is coming...

1

Nigeria's rich mineral resources offer a foundation for economic growth through effective harnessing.

2

The potential for mineral exports in Nigeria can enhance foreign exchange and bolster the country's balance of payments.

3

Government initiatives, including policy revisions and incentives like tax holidays would aim to attract investments.

4

A development of local content in mining can foster technology transfer, job creation, and skill development for Nigeria.

5

Unlock Nigeria’s mining potential by streamlining regulations, securing land rights, improving infrastructure, enhancing security, and promoting sustainability.
