"We are very big mining continent and historically and we have been exporters of raw minerals, there is no particular reason why we should not be processing those further" - Thabo Mbeki
Lithium is a soft, silvery-white metal primarily extracted from minerals like spodumene, lepidolite, and petalite. It is highly valued for its use in rechargeable batteries, particularly for electric vehicles and portable electronics. Nigeran stateslike kogi where our lithium mines are located is one of the global emerging lithium natural resources deposit. Lithium is often found alongside other valuable minerals, such as tin and tantalum, making its extraction an important aspect of Nigeria's growing mineral exploration sector. We have the capacity to supply not less than 300 MT monthly.
Nigeria is one of the African countries with abundant mica natural resources deposits and minerals. Mica is a group of silicate minerals with remarkable physical properties, including perfect cleavage, elasticity, and resistance to heat. Mica is usually combined with plastic used in automobiles orheavy machinery cause of its elasticity strength and resistance to heat We have the capacity to supply more than 300 MT monthly.
Fluorite, also known as fluorspar, is a valuable mineral primarily used in the production of hydrofluoric acid and as a flux in steelmaking. Nigeria has notable fluorite deposits, Fluorite is often found in association with other minerals such as quartz and barite. Its applications span industries including metallurgy, ceramics, and chemical manufacturing, water cleansing, making it a key mineral in Nigeria. We have the capacity to supply excess of 400 MT monthly.
Charcoal is a widely used natural resource in globally, primarily produced from hardwoods through a controlled process of carbonization. It serves as an essential energy source for heating, and is also used in industrial applications such as metal smelting. Nigeria is one of the largest producers and exporters of charcoal in Africa, with major production hubs in states like Oyo, Ondo, and Ogun. With Larryakins headquaters locatedat Ogun we are one of Nigeria's main Charcoal exporters The demand for Nigerian charcoal continues to grow globally, driven by its high quality and sustainable production practices. Our monthly ability to export Charcoal is of 350MT per month.
Manganese is a significant mineral, extensively used in various industries worldwide. It is essential in steel production, contributing to its strength and hardness. Moreover, manganese is a key component in the manufacturing of batteries, especially in the cathodes of lithium-ion batteries. Nigeria contributes to to the supply of manganese, although on a smaller scale, with Larry akins being on of the major western Nigera manganese exporters. The demand for manganese is increasing due to its critical role in industrial applications and the growing emphasis on sustainable extraction methods. With our Mines and warehouses in Ogun state and kebbi we are positioned to supply 250-300MT of this product monthly.
