Who we are

A responsible operator for the energy transition.

To responsibly unlock Nigeria’s mineral and energy potential through innovative exploration and sustainable mining, creating shared value for stakeholders, protecting the environment, and empowering host communities.

Terra-Tara Resources Ltd was incorporated in Nigeria in November 2024 to unlock the country’s mineral and energy potential the right way: ethical extraction, environmental stewardship, and shared value for the communities that host us.

What we pursue

The minerals powering a lower-carbon future.

From gold to the battery metals driving global electrification, our portfolio targets the commodities the world needs most.

  • Gold

    Our primary target. Structurally-hosted, orogenic-style gold across the Gwagwalada and Taraba concessions, supported by shearing, quartz veining and confirmed artisanal workings.

  • Lithium

    A strategic battery metal. Spodumene-bearing fault systems in proximity to the Bali concession give a compelling secondary target as global lithium demand grows.

  • Cobalt

    An energy-transition metal within our exploration portfolio, central to the batteries and storage that power a lower-carbon economy.

  • Zinc

    Base-metal potential across our host geology, with applications spanning construction, galvanising and industrial supply chains.

  • Fluorite

    An industrial mineral used across steel, aluminium and chemical processing, and part of the broader mineral endowment we are evaluating.

  • Rare Earths

    Strategic minerals essential to magnets, electronics and clean-energy technology, and a long-term focus of our exploration strategy.

Gwagwalada & Bali Prospectivity Review

Gwagwalada (FCT) & Bali (Taraba / Adamawa) · Prospectivity, Phase 1

A two-concession geological assessment across a known gold, tantalite and marble mineralised corridor. Desk review, field reconnaissance and drill-core recovery support a recommendation to proceed with structured Phase 1 exploration.

  • Two concessions within or adjacent to known mineralised corridors
  • Shearing, quartz veining and sulphidation: classic gold pathfinder indicators
  • Drill cores already recovered at Gwagwalada; assays are the critical next step
  • Bali offers dual-commodity upside: gold structural traps plus lithium-spodumene proximity

Secondary Flotation PlantConstruction, 2026

Taraba State

Secondary Flotation Plant

A secondary flotation circuit engineered to recover gold locked in tailings and transform 1.4 million tonnes of dormant material into value, relieving pressure on the main plant while improving water recycling and reducing environmental waste.

Taraba State Mineral ExplorationOngoing

Taraba State

Taraba State Mineral Exploration

A strategic exploration programme assessing Taraba’s rich mineral potential, pairing geological surveys and environmental baseline studies with early community engagement and CSR groundwork.

How we work

From first survey to restored ground.

  1. Explore

    Geological surveys, geophysical mapping and geochemical analysis to find and define mineralisation.

  2. Evaluate

    Drilling, feasibility studies and reserve estimation to confirm what is economic, using advanced exploration technology.

  3. Operate

    Environmentally responsible extraction and processing, held to local and international mining standards.

  4. Restore

    Land rehabilitation, water recycling and community programmes designed to outlast the mine.

Responsible operations

Protecting the land and the communities around it.

Sustainability is not a separate department at Terra-Tara. It is how we operate. A green-mining model built around renewable energy, water recycling and land rehabilitation runs through the full lifecycle of every site.

Our commitments
  • Green Mining Model

    A pilot framework that integrates renewable energy, waste recycling and land rehabilitation into the full mining lifecycle.

  • Environmental Stewardship

    Environmental impact assessments, rehabilitation planning and eco-friendly practices built into operations from the baseline stage.

  • Community Empowerment

    Skill-acquisition programmes for women and youth, educational support for local schools, and provision of water, healthcare and rural electrification.

  • Water & Waste

    Improved water recycling and tailings reprocessing that turn dormant waste into value while lowering the environmental footprint.
