Tin mining activities in Nigeria started in 1904 at the Jos Plateau (Fig. 1) By the mid-1920s more cassiterite and columbite discoveries were made resulting in a greater demand for more mechanized extraction techniques. This resulted in the removal of considerable amounts of soils and generated radioactive waste referred to as tailings.

Both Loto-mining and open cast methods were used as methods of mining. Assessment of operation productivity indicated that a typical artisanal tin miner work almost every day of the week (6.73 days) while they also work 11 hours per day. With 28.2kg production per week, tin mining productivity by the artisans was 4.19 kg per day.

Large-scale mining operations were established, and Nigeria became one of the world's leading tin producers in the 1960s. However, due to various factors such as the decline in tin prices and the discovery of oil, tin mining witnessed a significant decline. Currently, tin mining in Nigeria is predominantly carried out by artisanal and small ...
