Unlocking Nigeria's vast solid mineral wealth — responsibly, sustainably, and profitably.
About The Division
Nigeria is estimated to hold over 40 types of commercially viable solid minerals across its 36 states. Shebag Holdings entered the mining sector as a natural extension of our engineering and technical expertise — bringing the same rigour and experience to solid mineral exploration and extraction.
Our Mining Division operates in compliance with the Nigerian Mining Corporation guidelines and the Minerals and Mining Act, with a commitment to responsible extraction that benefits local communities and the Nigerian economy.
Our Approach
Geological surveys and site assessment to identify viable mineral deposits.
Full regulatory compliance with the Nigerian Ministry of Mines and Steel Development.
Safe and systematic mineral extraction with on-site processing where required.
Environmental rehabilitation and community development at all operational sites.
What We Mine
Nigeria's geology is rich and varied. Our mining operations focus on the following key solid minerals.
Alluvial and primary gold deposits found across Zamfara, Osun, and Oyo states. Processed for export to international refineries.
Use: Jewellery · Finance · Electronics
Nigeria's Jos Plateau has historically been one of the world's most significant tin-producing regions. Cassiterite ore sourced and processed for export.
Use: Soldering · Plating · Electronics
High-demand rare earth mineral found alongside tin deposits on the Jos Plateau. Critical for capacitor manufacturing in the global electronics sector.
Use: Electronics · Aerospace · Defence
Significant iron ore deposits across Kogi, Kwara, and Enugu states. Potential for domestic steel production and export of ore concentrate.
Use: Steel · Construction · Manufacturing
Emerging lithium deposits identified in Nasarawa and Plateau states — increasingly strategic in the context of global battery and energy storage demand.
Use: Batteries · EVs · Energy Storage
A range of industrial minerals including quartz, feldspar, limestone, and kaolin — supplying Nigeria's construction and manufacturing industries.
Use: Construction · Ceramics · Glass
Governance
We operate under all applicable Nigerian mining regulations including the Nigerian Minerals and Mining Act 2007, and maintain current mining licences from the Ministry of Mines and Steel Development.
All sites are subject to Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) and ongoing environmental monitoring. Site rehabilitation is built into every operational plan.
We consult and engage with host communities throughout the life of each project — creating employment, supporting local enterprise, and delivering tangible social benefits.
Our operations follow international health and safety standards for mining environments. Worker training, PPE provision, and regular safety audits are mandatory across all sites.
