Geology and Natural Resources of Nigeria is an up-to-date and comprehensive overview of the geological framework of the continental crust of Nigeria, its evolution, and the natural resources it holds. It covers a wide set of topics and provides a detailed description of the rock units of the Nigerian continental crust, their geological settings and structural characteristics, and the potential of their mineral, energy, and water resources. The book discusses the impact of geo-resources on the Nigerian economy, includes recommendations on how to fully exploit geo-resources, and explains how to prevent geological processes that could lead to natural hazards.

FEATURES

  • Provides different aspects of the Nigerian continental crust from a multidisciplinary approach
  • Draws on the latest findings in geoscience research to present new insights and perspectives into the development and resource potential of the Nigerian continental crust
