Abstract

This report contains scientific
during a visit to the Uganda
Department (GSMD) from 28 July -
data gathered by S.J. Mathers
Geological Survey and Mines
16 August 1992, together with
the results of the laboratory evaluation of some of the samples
collected, undertaken at BGS Keyworth by C.J. Mitchell.
The study builds on the data already gathered by Morgan (1991)
and Mitchell (1992) as part of the ODA/BGS Minerals for
Development R&D project initiative in Uganda. The data will be
incorporated in an industrial minerals inventory of Uganda which
will be prepared in collaboration with the GSMD and the united
Nations Development Programme (UNDP). The main aim is to
publicize the potential of Uganda's industrial minerals, both for
domestic consumption and export, in the hope of attracting the
much needed investment for the mining sector.
