The Nigerian Mineral Exchange (NME) is thrilled to share a significant milestone! We recently hosted a training session for 193 enthusiastic students of Geology & Mining at Nasarawa State University, Keffi. This initiative highlights our commitment to empowering the next generation and unlocking the full potential of Nigeria’s mineral wealth.
The training session delved into the exciting world of emerging technologies that are transforming the mining industry, equipping students with vital skills in:
- Remote Sensing & GIS
- Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning
- Drones & Robotics
- Big Data & Internet of Things (IoT)
- Cloud Computing & Data Analytics
- Blockchain Technology
By equipping these future leaders with the latest knowledge and expertise, NME believes we can collectively unlock the full potential of Nigeria’s vast mineral resources in a responsible and sustainable manner.
Further demonstrating our commitment to the government’s total formalization policy, NME’s Total Formalization Projects are progressing smoothly. We are currently assisting in formalizing 12 mining communities across Nasarawa, Kaduna, and Bauchi states. Additionally, some communities have already started receiving their official certificates of registration as Mining Corporative Societies.
This marks the beginning of an exciting journey towards a more prosperous and sustainable mining sector in Nigeria. NME remains dedicated to supporting the formalization process, empowering the next generation of professionals, and contributing to the nation’s economic growth and development. We invite you to stay tuned for further updates on our mission to build a brighter future for the Nigerian mining industry!
