Kaolin

Kaolin deposits across Nigeria's South-West extend Onsien Energy's solid minerals portfolio beyond metallic ores into industrial clays.

Kaolin, a fine white clay valued for its purity and low abrasiveness, occurs extensively across Ekiti, Ogun, and neighbouring South-West states. Onsien Energy sources kaolin under active prospecting and mining arrangements, targeting both raw and beneficiated grades.

Domestic demand spans ceramics, paints, and pharmaceuticals, while processed high-brightness kaolin remains a significant import for Nigeria's paper and coatings industries — a gap our supply chain is positioned to close.

Through our South Africa partnership, Onsien also facilitates kaolin referrals to international buyers seeking consistent, quality-graded volumes from West Africa.
