There are abundant and diverse gemstones in the colored gemstones industry in Nigeria.
Mining of colored gemstones is widespread in the Nigeria and is mainly carried out by Artisans and Small scale Miners. The artisan miners are informal mostly migratory and have served as ‘pathfinders’ discovering and temporarily mining many rich deposits of spectacular gemstones.The government as part of the mining reform established the department of Artisanal and Small scale Miners to organize support and promote small scale miners. The general economic reforms have created an enabling investment climate with relatively cheap labour. There are numerous viable opportunities for mining the rich and extensive near surface deposits of sapphire, ruby, emerald, aquamarine, tourmaline, and the rest, which are found in Nigeria and presently under-exploited. The major problem government face in gemstone revenue generation is curbing illegal miners who happen to be more dominant than the legal gemstone miners.
The reserves in Nigeria is still underdeveloped but government is putting things in place to make this sector a major foreign exchange earner.
