Welcome to the Nigeria Solid Minerals Investments and Trade Forum 2025
Nigeria is endowed with 44 exploitable minerals across 500+ locations, yet less than 1% of its $700 billion solid mineral potential has been tapped. Despite generating over $714 million in revenue in the last decade, the sector remains largely underdeveloped, with solid mineral exports contributing only 0.47% of total trade (USD 184 million in Q4 2022).The Nigerian government is increasingly prioritizing diversification from oil, positioning the solid minerals sector as a key driver of industrialization, foreign exchange earnings, and employment. Policy incentives, such as streamlined licensing processes, tax holidays, and duty-free importation, demonstrate readiness to attract foreign investment.
Welcome2Africa International (W2A), a trade and investments facilitation firm is organizing the first edition of the Nigeria Solid Minerals Investments and Trade Forum_ to serve as a bridge between Nigeria’s mineral wealth and international investors, financiers, and industry leaders. This one-day high-level forum will facilitate dialogue, networking, and deal-making between Nigerian stakeholders and the global investment community.
Objectives
Attract $50 million in investment commitments for solid mineral exploration, processing, and value-addition projects. Provide a platform to showcase at least 10 investment-ready Nigerian mining projects to foreign stakeholders. Strengthen international collaboration by securing 5 new trade partnerships or MOUs
