Nigeria

Nigeria has numerous mineral resources, and most of which are of economic quantity, one of its mineral that's readily available for trade and with high market demand is petroleum (crude oil). The main minerals in Nigeria are; bauxite, coal, tin, iron ore, columbite, natural gas, limestone, gold, lead and zinc. Other minerals found in Nigeria includes gypsum, alluminium, lignite, salts, and asbestos.

Oil was first discovered in commercial quantities in Nigeria in 1956 in Oloibiri, a small village in the Niger Delta region. This discovery led to the start of Nigeria's oil industry and significantly impacted the country's economy.

The lunar eclipse of August 6, 2009 will be a penumbral eclipse, meaning that the Moon will pass - partially! - through the outer, brighter layers of the Earth's shadow. While observers with the proper instruments would be able to view the eclipse throughout Africa, Europe or South America (and parts of southwestern Asia) the eclipse will not be generally visible to the naked eye.

The most anyone will be able to see is a very slight dimming of the Sun's light shining on one side of the Moon.

You can simulate this eclipse. Stand three bright lights a few inches apart; this will represent the Sun. Notice the amount of illumination visible on a small ball at the other end of the room; this represents the Moon.

Turn off ONE of the lights. This represents the decrease in illumination caused by the penumbral eclipse. Look at the ball; not much difference, is there?

Penumbral lunar eclipses generally are not visible.

Although Nigeria lies wholly within the tropical zone, there are wide climatic variations in different regions of the country. Near the coast, the seasons are not sharply defined. Temperatures rarely exceed 32° C(90° F), but humidity is very high and nights are hot. Inland, there are two distinct seasons: a wet season from April to October, with generally lower temperatures, and a dry season from November to March, with midday temperatures that surpass 38° C(100° F) but relatively cool nights, dropping as low as 12° C(54° F). On the Jos Plateau, temperatures are more moderate.

Average rainfall along the coast varies from about 180 cm (70 in) in the west to about 430 cm (170 in) in certain parts of the east. Inland, it decreases to around 130 cm (50 in) over most of central Nigeria and only 50 cm (20 in) in the extreme north.

Two principal wind currents affect Nigeria. The harmattan, from the northeast, is hot and dry and carries a reddish dust from the desert; it causes high temperatures during the day and cool nights. The southwest wind brings cloudy and rainy weather.

Some of the major river basins in Nigeria include the Niger Basin Authority (mandate: cooperation, sustainable management of water resources), the Benue Basin Development Authority (mandate: development of water resources for agriculture, fisheries, and urban water supply), and the Ogun-Oshun River Basin Development Authority (mandate: water resources development for agriculture, domestic, and industrial use).

Niger, Chad, Cameroon, and Benin are countries that border Nigeria.

As you move from the coast inland in Nigeria, you might notice changes in the landscape. The coastal areas are characterized by mangrove swamps and low-lying plains, while the inland areas transition to a plateau with rolling hills. The vegetation may also change from tropical rainforest along the coast to savanna and grassland further inland.

The Gulf of Guinea forms the southern coast of Nigeria. It is part of the Atlantic Ocean and stretches along the country's coastline from the western to the eastern border.
