A comprehensive review of literature was carried out to evaluate the presence of heavy
metals (HMs), with a view to study its effect on man, plants and aquatic organisms in Ebonyi …

This paper presents a review on previous activities of mining on water resources around
active and abandoned mines/quarries across Ebonyi State, South-Eastern, Nigeria. As high …

This paper presents results on the stability of slopes of the mine tailing dumps at Enyigba,
Southeastern Nigeria. The geotechnical parameters of the slopes were investigated, and …

Electrical resistivity method was employed to determine fracture zones, aquifer protection,
and groundwater potential of the aquifer within the southern Benue Trough. A total of 22 …

A combination of the integrated electrical conductivity (IEC), aquifer vulnerability index (AVI),
and the groundwater hydraulic confinement-overlying strata-depth to water table (GOD) …

Petrographic studies on the intrusive rocks from the Ishiagu area show that they are gabbro,
dolerites, and diorite. The gabbro and diorite occur as stocks while the dolerites occur as …

Natural radioactivity associated with the Abakaliki baked shale as construction materials
was measured using gamma spectrometry to establish radiological risk to public health …

Resistivity range for groundwater-bearing fracture zones was studied in the fractured shales
and sandstones of pre-Santonian sedimentary succession in Abakaliki area, southern …

This research investigated the potential of cement stabilized shale quarry dust for possible
use as road foundation material. From the results, the shale consists mainly of SiO 2 (27.7 …

This research evaluates the potentials of argillite quarry waste (AQW) as raw material in
