As part of efforts to create awareness of mineral information among the public, the Nigeria Geological Survey Agency (NGSA) has successfully carried out six Mineral Clinic workshops, one in each of the six Geopolitical Zones of Nigeria.
At the workshops, the Agency encouraged the public to make enquiries about solid minerals, their uses, where and how they occur, and how they can be used as instruments for wealth creation.
The Agency also carried out tests and analyzed mineral samples at no cost to participants.
