Relating Geology and Geological Structures with Regional Episodes: Implication for Groundwater Exploration and Development around Kwal-Kanke Area, Jos Plateau

Abstract The  study  addressed  the  Geology  and  geological structures around  Kwal-Kanke  area  around  the  Jos  plateau. Three (3) rock types namely; Quaternary dolerite/basic rocks, aplo-pegmatitic  granite  gneiss  and  migmatite-gneiss  were delineated. The  quaternary  dolerites  and  the  aplo-pegmatitic granite  are  emplaced  in  form  of  dykes  with  lateral  extent greater than 3km trending NW-SE and conforms to the trend of the fractures around J...

COMPARATIVE CHARACTERIZATION OF SOME PORTLAND CEMENTS SOLD IN SOKOTO CITY.

ABSTRACT The aim of this research was to characterize some Portland cements (Bua, Dangote and Sokoto cement) sold in Sokoto city using standard methods; due to the persistent collapse of buildings. The results showed that Sokoto cement recorded the least CaO content (58.99%) while Dangote cement had the highest CaO content being 61.56%. All the samples have Al2O3, SiO2 and Fe2O3 contents within the acceptable limits with the exception of Dangote with SiO2 content being below the required stan...

Electrolyte Content of Some Soft Drinks

Abstract Soft drinks are consumed daily in Nigeria due to their characteristic taste, palatability, affordability and thirst quenching potential. This study quantifies the amount of electrolytes of Biochemical significance in selected soft drinks sold in Port Harcourt and their pH values. The samples included six frequently consumed soft drinks; (Coke, Sprite, Fayrouz, Mountain-Dew, Fanta and Pepsi). The results showed that the samples contain relatively high amount of Sodium(Na+) ranging fro...

DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF AN ATTENDANCE SYSTEM USING FINGERPRINT SCANNER

This research work, Design and Implementation of an Attendance System using fingerprint scanner, focuses on computerizing and managing the attendance of students during lecture or event periods. This is very imperative as the cons of the traditional pen to paper attendance system far outweigh the pros as management of student attendance has become a hassle due to increasing number of students during various lecture periods. This study would discuss in detail, how the inconveniences posed by t...

DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF A HOSPITAL MEDICAL INFORMATION SYSTEM USING FEDERAL MEDICAL CENTER, ABUJA AS A CASE STUDY

Computer and data have become an integral part of every enterprise and business today. Accurate data which is transformed to information is required for any industry to perform at optimal level as such is used in decisive management and decision making processes. This therefore makes such organisations critically dependent on the use of a database system to help in accessing such data and information. However, many hospitals are found to be somewhat “stuck” on the present manual paper bas...
