  • Delineation of Potential Mineral Zones from Aeromagnetic Data Over Eastern Part of Zamfara
    Delineation of Potential Mineral… Savanna Journal of Basic and Applied Sciences Available online at http://www.sjbas.com.ng Savanna Journal of Basic and Applied Sciences (June, 2021), 3(1): 60 - 66 P:ISSN 2695-2335 | E:ISSN 2705-3164 Delineation of Potential Mineral Zones from Aeromagnetic Data over Eastern Part of Zamfara Augie, A.I. and Ridwan, M.M. Applied Geophysics Department, Federal University Birnin Kebbi, Nigeria ABSTRACT In this study, acquired aeromagnetic data was used to delineate structures that may host minerals over the eastern part of Zamfara State. The acquired aeromagnetic data were analysed, processed and interpreted using the following techniques; IGRF/DGRF computation, reduction to magnetic equator (RTE), geologic contact (GC), centre for exploration targeting (CET) and source parameter imaging (SPI). The result from these techniques revealed the presence of granite, migmatite, biotite, gneiss, diorite, medium coarse grained quartz-mica schist and biotite- homblende granite as compared with geology of the area. Magnetic anomalous zones identified in these area were associated with the Fe-bearing mineral and sediments with widest variation in Fe- content that form various silicate and oxide mineral species which may probably formed during the formation of both intrusive and extrusive igneous rocks. These regions also have revealed the lineaments that were trending in South-East of the study area within the Birnin Magaji/Kiyawa, eastern part of Bungudu, southern part of Gusau, NE part of Tsafe and western part of Faskari. These structures were associated with hydrothermal solutions of the host rocks that may form mineral and the types of rocks/or structures within the zones play an important role in solid minerals exploration.

Blood samples from 501 volunteers were diagnosed for bancroftian antibodies using rapid diagnostic test (RDT) kits (filariasis IgG/IgM Combo). An overall prevalence of 38.72% was recorded. Rawayya-Bela ward was found to have the highest prevalence (45.24%) of infection among the wards, while least prevalence (27.38%) of infection was recorded in Kwatarkwashi ward. With respect to gender, the highest prevalence (48.46%) of infection occurred in males as against their female counterparts. The age-related prevalence showed people at age bracket 10-19 to be the highest infected (50.57%) group while those at age bracket 0-9 had the least prevalence (33.75%) of infection. With respect to occupation of the inhabitants, farmers were found to have the highest prevalence (45.61%) of infection than the other occupational groups.

  • 1Bfebruary to September 2019
    NIGERIA Food Security Outlook February to September 2019 Intense insurgent attacks in northeast Nigeria lead to increased displacement and food needs KEY MESSAGES • Conflict in northeast Nigeria continues to threaten lives Current food security outcomes, February 2019 and livelihoods. Affected resident and displaced populations continue to face significant difficulty meeting their basic food needs, and worst-affected areas are likely in Emergency (IPC Phase 4). Inaccessible areas are likely facing similar or worse food security outcomes as neighboring, accessible areas. More extreme levels of acute food insecurity are possible in a worst-case scenario where displaced populations become cutoff due to a shift in conflict and emergency assistance provision is halted. • Many households continue to be impacted by farmer/herder conflict in central and northern states, and affected populations remain displaced in Zamfara, Source: FEWS NET Katsina, Kaduna, Taraba, Plateau, Benue, Nasarawa, and Adamawa states. The conflict keeps households from engaging in normal livelihood activities in affected areas. Larger populations have restricted access to market and income opportunities in Zamfara and Katsina states and will likely be Stressed (IPC Phase 2) through September 2018. • In much of the rest of the country, households are consuming own food stocks in the postharvest period. Households are engaged normally in dry season activities, petty trading, and labor work to earn income. Staple food prices are generally exhibiting typical trends and will peak during the lean season period between July and September. Consequently, most households will face Minimal (IPC Phase 1) acute food insecurity between February and September 2019 across the country. NATIONAL OVERVIEW Current Situation Dry season activities: Dry season cultivation started normally in December 2018 when waters receded in local ponds and rivers.
