Abstract
The area is made up of mig matites, migmatitic gneisses,
granite gneisses nnd parphyrablastic granite gneisses,
forming part of the migmatitic complex belonging to the
Nigerian Precambrian basement complex. These rocks
represent various stages of homogenisatinn in the process
of migmatisation. They could have been formed by the
migmatizotion of the reactivated gneisses and ether
supracrustal rocks of the Oaho meyan successions (with
ages of about 2,800 - 2,500 million years.)
