Solid Minerals Excellence Awards

Get ready to celebrate the professionals in solid minerals and meet the industry’s top achievers in one awesome event!

Nigeria’s #1 Award for Celebrating Excellence and Productivity in the Solid Minerals Sector.

The solid minerals sector plays a vital role in modern society, driving economic growth and development, generating foreign exchange earnings, and more. However, the sector's influence and importance are often underappreciated by the public. With millions of people employed directly and indirectly in the sector, it's essential to recognize and celebrate the standout performance that have dedicated all in ensuring the growth of the sector.

The Solid Minerals Excellence Awards (SOMEA), endorsed by the Ministry of Solid Minerals Development, aims to do just that. SOMEA is more than just an award ceremony; it serves as a catalyst for continued sector development by recognizing the often-overlooked yet impactful work being done. It celebrates innovation and achievements while raising awareness and promoting continuous improvement.

The event will receive extensive media coverage, both locally and internationally, and will take place on Thursday, May 14, 2026, at the Abuja Continental Hotel. We expect to bring together key stakeholders and leaders in the sector.

Why SOMEA?

SOMEA isn’t just an award, it’s a movement for excellence. By recognizing those at the forefront of the solid minerals sector, we aim to:

● Promote best practices in mining and mineral processing.

● Encourage sustainability, environmental care, and community engagement.

● Attract investments and talent to boost sector growth.

● Enhance Nigeria’s global reputation in the solid minerals industry.
