Overview

Exploration identifies geochemical characteristics of migmatites, suggesting historical tectonic movements.

Key Points

  • To investigate the structural and geochemical properties of migmatites in Plateau State, Nigeria.
  • Field mapping of the migmatites in a specified geographic area
  • Collection and analysis of 15 rock samples for geological characteristics
  • Petrographic examination of 12 samples
  • Assessment of mineral composition and structural lineaments
  • Identification of four distinct lithologic units including metatexites and ditexites
  • High silica content in samples ranging from 51.04 to 97.34 wt%
  • Notable enrichment of FeO3 and Al2O3 in specific samples
  • Evidence of tectonic stress regimes indicated by lineament orientations
