No matter how you look at it,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], becoming a landlord today looks like it will be profitable for many years to come.
Becoming a landlord is not for everyone. Many real estate investors want to purchase property and then turn around and sell it for a profit. However,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], when you become a landlord you own that property for a while and have the potential to make more money from it over time than if you quickly flipped it or sold it wholesale to another real estate investor.
If you think about all of the foreclosures happening today,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], where will all of those people go to live? The quick answer is that they will become renters and there will be literally millions of them in the market for a home to rent in the next few years. Because of the sheer number of potential future renters,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], becoming a landlord is looking to be a very attractive option for many people who invest in real estate.
As the price of property drops in most of the U.S. and homes are foreclosed on at record numbers, this is a prime time to invest in some real estate to rent out. After the market has recovered down the road,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], then you can likely sell the property for a profit. However,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], as you know,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], renting out property makes you a landlord. And,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], becoming a landlord requires some commitment and a good understanding of your landlord rights.
As you might imagine,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], becoming a landlord can be wrought with calls in the middle of the night and complaining tenants. You can help insulate yourself from some of this by hiring a property management company to handle your rental properties.
While there is no one single “landlord legal guide” for you to consult, the use of a good landlord attorney can be priceless if you will be renting out the investment property you own. Your landlord attorney can work with you to make sure that you clearly understand all of your landlord rights and responsibilities right from the start. They can help to advise you on finding good quality tenants,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and they can help you when you have a tenant you have to evict as well.

You can also insulate yourself by offering some of your properties as least option to buy. When you do a lease option you can have your tenant be responsible for repairs and upkeep to the property which keeps you out of the traditional landlord role and one where you are more of a lender with a mortgage interest in the property.

* They don't get work done on time or ignore work they don't want to do,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
* Don't give in and re-hire them. Some people will beg -- or worse threaten -- to get their job back. Be firm and keep saying No.
There must be something in the air. Three of my clients called me this week to talk about firing an employee or subcontractor. One client asked me, "Can you please write an article about this so I know what to do?" And thus this article was born.
* They do things without your permission that have a strong negative impact on your business or reputation.
* They don't have the skill to do the job,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], even though they told you they did.
Next, document your normal procedures so that the new person knows how things are done. This will reduce the amount of training time and get the new person up to speed quickly.
Plan a time to speak with your employee or subcontractor when you won't be disturbed. While uncomfortable, it is better to do this in person if at all possible. Otherwise, use the phone. Do not terminate someone via email or instant messenger.
Author's Bio: ,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych];
These issues can lead to other problems, so even if they seem small they can blow up on you in the future. Your reputation relies on the quality of the work you do and all the people who you hire need to have the same level of excellence. If you demand it of yourself, demand it of your employees and subcontractors.
THE BIG BREAKUP
Finally, before you fire them, protect yourself by changing your passwords (and if necessary, credit card numbers), or any other personal information they have access to. This includes passwords to your hosting company, domain registrar, shopping cart, banking accounts,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], etc. Make sure you have a copy of all paper documents and electronic files (such as website files, Quickbook files,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Word documents, etc.) before you fire them - you may not get them afterward without a fight. If the person has a key to your home or office, consider having your door locks re-keyed by a professional locksmith. While most people will respond with dignity, there may be some who will want revenge. Forewarned is forearmed.
DETERMINE WHY YOU ARE FIRING THEM
* They overcharge you.
In the future confront every task poorly done,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], every miscommunication, every job avoided when it happens. Don't procrastinate hoping they'll fix it themselves. If you're lucky, these immediate comments about their work will forestall having to fire them in the future. At the very least, they won't be surprised when they are fired.
If you don't think you have time to document all this,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], ask yourself: Do you really have time to constantly be fixing their mistakes or trying to get them to communicate with you? Don't let this process drag on; once you have sufficient reason, fire them.

If you have a written contract with the person, read it in advance and make sure you understand that terms of the agreement when it comes to ending the contract.
There are many reasons to fire someone who works for you. It helps if you have clarity about why you are letting them go,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. Write a list of things that aren't going well and be specific. Here are some examples:
Now is the time to begin considering how you will replace the person you just fired. First, write up a job description, listing all the tasks they did for you. Also write up a list of qualities you expect from the person: accuracy, timeliness,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], open communication. Include in this list the skills they must possess in order to do the job.
* Be clear and professional.
* They treat others poorly,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], including co-workers, colleagues and clients.
AFTER THE BREAKUP
* Be clear about exactly what's wrong. Give examples.
Terminating an employee or subcontractor is never easy, but it helps to know why and how to do it. With this checklist, you should be able to get through it with grace and confidence.
* They don't abide by the terms of a written contract or oral agreement.
* They don't reply to your emails and phone calls in a timely manner.
* Tell them how you expect things to be.
* Identify the times you asked them to change their work or their behavior. Remind them that you've spoken to them previously about what was not working for you,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
* There are too many typos and grammar errors in the work they give you.
Finally, sit back and relax. You've done a good job in handling a tough situation and you need time to process your own thoughts before moving on with your day.
Here are some pointers to consider:
* They're making too many mistakes.
* Do not get sucked into their emotional reaction. Some people may cry, shout or give you the silent treatment. Some people don't handle rejection well even though you've spoken to them before about being dissatisfied with their work. Allow them to have their reaction without you participating in their emotions.
We hire people to help us grown and run our small business: assistants and virtual assistants,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], website designers and graphic artists, copywriters, coaches and consultants, and bookkeepers. But what do you do when their work isn't up to par or they are constantly missing their deadlines?

Explore Your Fears and Turn Them into Positive Beliefs
The new difficult times ahead,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], of constant and rapid change, will most certainly make us feel uncomfortable and thrust us outside our comfort zone.
Now create an action list that you can act on daily, which will help you to gain the maximum benefit from your answers above,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], so that you can begin to use all the change in your life to your advantage. The rapidly changing times we live in, require us to do this at least three times a week. Schedule about 10 minutes three times a week into your dairy and over time make exploring your environment and discovering all the changes that may affect your life one of your new success habits.
Take the time to take a quite glance around and you will see the many blessings you already enjoy and will continue to enjoy in the future. The change that is all around you right now is one of those new blessings; it gives you unprecedented opportunity to discover new and better opportunities every day. So accept that change is just the way things are and work to discover how to make change your new success partner. You have so much to gain,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], use every moment to the full and dare to live a great life.
Action Idea: Find a quiet place where you can sit, relax, breathe and get in tune with your inner self. Explore your inner self by asking and answering these questions:
It would be naive to say that things have not changed in our environment; we are most certainly facing tougher, or should I say different conditions, than we have faced in the past. The reality of these uncertain times though,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], is that they are here to stay. I believe that this is how normal will feel and be in the future. The easy times of the early 2000’s will never exist in the same form ever again. Yes we live in a world of cycles where there are always periods of easy abundance, followed by periods where abundance exists,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but we need to be more innovative and creative to discover and exploit the abundance that abounds. The rapid rate of change has forever changed the landscape of our lives and uncertainty and constant and rapid change are now just how things are and will be for the foreseeable future.
Affirmation: I am a champion at everything I do, I have unlimited capacity to learn and can learn any skill or ability I require.
Action Idea: Examine your fears long enough to know what they are and then create a set of positive affirmations that are the exact opposite of your fears,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
•What has changed or is changing around me?
•How can I use this change to my advantage,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]?
•Have I changed?
•What do I need to change or improve about myself,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]?
Example: You constantly doubt yourself and feel unsure about your abilities.
Any time you begin to feel any fear about change or challenge,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], repeat one of the affirmations you create,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], over and over in your head, until the fear subsides. Over time your positive affirmation or new positive thoughts will begin to replace your fears. This new positive behaviour will help you to lift yourself out of the turbulence of doubt and allow you to begin to soar above the clouds of change.
The reality of the new and constantly changing world we live in is that opportunities are still there, we just need to look for and discover them a little differently. It is time to fasten your mental and spiritual seat belts and to accept that the way you have done things until now,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], is no longer going to work the same in the future. If you want to reach the next level of accomplishment you must become a champion of change and be able to adapt to and utilise change as your new ally.

Sales of Korean iron and steel products are currently very strong in the Middle East. In some regions,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Korean metal makers have secured market shares of more than 50 percent.
The Korea Iron & Steel Association said on Sunday that exports of domestic steel products to the Middle East surged by 64.2 percent year-on-year in 2006. Korean steel exports to the region have doubled from 896,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],090 tons in 2003 to 1,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],809,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],203 tons in 2006.

Currently,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Hyundai Steel has 55 percent of the H-shaped steel market in the United Arab Emirates.
"Construction is booming with the influx of oil money in the Middle East,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," a Hyundai Steel official said. "Cheap Chinese products can't compete with high-quality Korean products."
H-shaped steel looks like the letter H in cross section and is used for the structural frames of large buildings.

In the wake of a series of revelations of celebrities and their false academic backgrounds, I was reminded of an interview I conducted in Korea about four years ago. The subject was a fashion designer who had staged a gala show in Korea after having won acclaim in Paris.
The Paris Collection, the center of the world's fashion industry,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], consists roughly of the haute couture and pret-a-porter genres. A few Koreans had shown their work in pret-a-porter,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but this woman was the first Korean designer to ever have been officially listed for the haute couture division.
In the process of arranging the interview,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the PR agency responsible for publicizing her Korean show boasted that the designer had a degree in philosophy from Seoul National University. Naturally during the interview I asked when she had attended SNU and what had motivated her to change her focus from philosophy to fashion. The designer answered ambiguously and her equivocating made me suspicious. When I returned to my office, I called the SNU alumni association to find out the truth. No such student had ever entered or graduated from that university.
I wished I didn't have to write the interview. The challenge she accepted and the success she saw in Paris was enough for a news story. But it was hard for me to trust her words because I saw that she didn't try to correct the misinformation about her background, but rather seemed intent to leave it as it was.
After agonizing over what to do, I finally wrote the story after double checking the achievements in Paris she had claimed. I told myself that I had decided to interview her not because she had studied at a prestigious university, but because it was amazing to see a relatively unknown jump into fashion at a rather advanced age and succeed in haute couture in Paris through tenacity and talent.
The interview left a bitter taste in my mouth, but I sincerely wished her every success in Paris. I also hoped that if she achieved that kind of success,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], she might free herself from the inferiority complex over her true educational background.
But to my disappointment,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the designer continued to implicitly present her false academic background whenever she met Koreans. Regretfully, I believe that this attitude has made her somewhat of a loser.
In the fashion circles of Paris nobody knew her as the designer with the SNU degree. It is much more difficult and challenging for a foreign designer to win recognition in Paris than it is to enter SNU. She drew attention for her own talent and creativity, and was justly celebrated on several occasions by the French press. "I worked and worked as if my back were to a cliff at every moment,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," she said once.
Despite her substantial success in Paris, she came to look for a business opportunity in Korea,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], citing her false identity as the Paris haute couture designer with the SNU degree. This was the beginning of her end. In the meantime she was being forgotten in Paris,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], which had brought her to fame in the first place. In the fashion world of Paris there are many designers from around the world seeking their fortunes,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and many drift into oblivion. In this world,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], designers are supposed to put all their effort into presenting new and creative designs every season. A designer can hit the skids in an instant if she lets down her guard even for a moment. I heard that the Korean designer had another show in Paris recently, but failed to attract much attention.
Her story gives us a hint as to how we might find a solution to our preoccupation with academic background. Lying about our credentials is rampant in Korean society,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], across all fields, because our society exceedingly rewards those who present a handsome academic resume. That means that we lack the professionalism necessary to truly evaluate creativity and ability. Ours is still an amateurish society that gives high marks to those with a glossy facade. Now is the time to burst this bubble entirely.

IPL laser equipment is the new trend for the modern era in hair removal and skin rejuvenation. This technology is used notably by beauty studios and medical practitioner for attending various skin problems .This has been proved to improve the appearance of discolorations of skin-red, brown or black. As different skin has different reactions,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the equipment is adjusted according to specific wavelength depending on the skin,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], targeting the chromophores. Thus, one can say this equipment is a boon to mankind when it comes to beautifying oneself,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], carrying any sort of skin problem.
Laser IPL machine describes the intense pulses spread over a range of wavelength primarily for hair removal and is a registered trademark. The distinction is made between beauty grade and medical grade machines based on the pulse energy,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], 50 joules for beauty grade and higher energies for medical grade.
Use of IPL Machines:
• Skin reddening
• Skin irritation and on rare cases stinging sensation in the skin
• Increased sensitivity to UV radiation,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
IPL laser and its effects
Laser IPL machine machines stimulate the light on the skin which removes or repairs the damaged skin ensuring safety on its usage. It is a nonsurgical cosmetic skin procedure followed to correct irregularities in the skin. Some of the advantages are: it is painless, woundless and comfortable; it also helps in non-exhaustion, immediate results and easy operation.
The laser has forced its entry in every field and hair removal is not an exception. This treatment is applicable on all hair colour and skin problems. The treatment requires less than thirty minutes and the number of treatments depends on the hair density in each part. Ladies who are pregnant or person with any sort of skin infection can avoid such treatment to avoid unnecessary risk. The side effects of IPL hair removal laser methods are faced almost by everyone resulting in itching or reddening has been reported. Therefore,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], it is better to get a medical advice before going in for IPL laser hair removal.
IPL laser technique in hair removal
But all in all,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], IPL laser equipment and IPL hair removal laser technique has led to the overall improvement in the patients. The reduction in skin diseases has been seen from 30% to 11%,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], this is a big leap in a short period. Although there is persistent complaint about the side effects,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], experts are trying to bring the side effects to a minimum and various researches are being carried even still.
There is more awareness of laser technology among today’s generation than what it was earlier. Laser basically means a device that emits light through a process of optical amplification. Laser technology or laser machines have taken its origin in various fields of advancement like medical, security and even in the beauty.

and with the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games approaching, the first time in the history of the largest Anti Doping investigation began. The International Olympic Committee, will carry 6250 copies of the doping test during the summer Olympic Games and Paralympic Games, this figure is also more than the previous Olympic games. In the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, a total of 20 athletes tested positive for drug use,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and in 04 years the Athens Olympic Games, this figure is 26 people.

of course in addition to security problems, the weather will be during the game,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], one of the most important factors. The event organizers believe that the impact will not be great weather for the game, but on Monday,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the dark clouds, downpour.

1. EMPLOYMENT PROVISION
a. It is capable of taking them away from agriculture, which of course is another veritable alternative income earner for the state. When the people forsake agriculture they waste arable lands and there would be food shortage.
The export of these solid minerals serves as foreign exchange earning to the state because baryte is used in so many industrial processes like drilling of oil, gas manufacturing, paint manufacturing, in the paper industry, in the rubber processing industry, in agro chemical/pharmaceutical industries, and so on. It can be a veritable source of foreign exchange earning for the country and Nasarawa State in particular. The proceeds from the earning realized from these minerals can be used to pay for capital goods, imported. It can also be used to invest on investments. Although, at the present time, it has not assumed the dimension of an expert commodity due to under utilization, it is hoped that with the governments’ improved investment in the exploration and processing of baryte from its crude state to its finished product, the commodity shall become one of the export commodities that Nasarawa State will boast of and that will earn good money for state and the federation. The multivariate use of barite allows search for greater tonnage and quality barytes. The Azara baryte has better mineralogical and geochemical properties which are in contra-distinction from barite found in other parts of the country. Its strategic geological and geographical location generally reduces transportation cost, exploration cost, technological overburden, which invariably increases its economic viability compared with the present day market value of baryte.
This is one of the problems besetting the Nigeria Mining Corporation. The Nasarawa State government should avoid this pitfall when it creates its own company to explore barytes at Azara.
These questions are germane to ensuring the economic viability of baryte as a veritable alternative income for Nasarawa State. As ‘hot’ as the demand for these solid minerals at both local and international markets, Nasarawa State should have been comparable to richly endowed cities like Port Harcourt, Warri and Texas. It should be noted that the above stated statistical analysis does not include how much the government would make if it involved in the exploration process. The government could make five hundred percent or more if it involved in the exploration process
The earning realized from these solid minerals, especially baryte, can transform the fortune of the state positively. When properly managed (this is essential) the earning from baryte, as well as other solid minerals in the state could transform the landscape and general infrastructure of the state, tremendously. The earning can be used for the provision of basic social amenities such building highways, flyovers, stadium, airports, new harbors, repairing bad roads, electricity, health care centres, modern colleges and tertiary institutions, pipe borne water, electricity, health care centres, , recreation and tourist centres, communication networks, and so on.
9. It is on record, based on more recent estimate, that there is a total reserve of about seven hundred and thirty thousand (73,000) tonnes of baryte to be found in only five of the thirteen veins discovered at Azara. This report is courtesy of the Project Manager, NBMPC Ltd, Azara, given on the 13th of July, 2005. It should be noted however that 96% of Azara baryte is used by the oil and gas industry as oil-well stabilizer. On the whole, there should be reserves of over a hundred thousand tonnes of high quality barytes at Azara, where about 18 veins measuring about 2m x 1000m are being mined under the supervision of the Nigeria Mining Corporation.
With the advent of crude oil in Nigeria, solid minerals exploration and exploitation, as well as agriculture, have been relegated to the background. There is however no doubt that crude oil is the mainstay of Nigeria’s economy. The solid mineral, baryte, is of a strategic importance to the oil and gas industry. There is no doubt therefore that the Azara baryte exploitation holds a promise for the future of Nasarawa State. In view of this realistic position, the economic viability of solid minerals as a veritable alternative income for Nasarawa State, with a particular reference to baryte exploration in Azara can not be over emphasized. This research is an expository in that direction.
It is obvious that the state government would derive more revenue if it participates directly in the exploration process. Due to the high cost of processing the baryte into finished products, many private persons may not be able to invest in that area but the state government could source fund and invest in the short run with a view to getting the company public in the long run. It should be noted here that a metric tonne of the finished product of baryte stones cost one hundred and twenty thousand naira (N 120,000), where a tonne at Azara is valued at not more than five thousand naira. We can therefore see how much the government would be saving if it were to establish its own processing factory at Nasarawa. The gains would be tremendous and a lot more people would gain employment in the eventual factories.
8. PRUDENT MANAGEMENT OF RESOURCES
This research revealed that, for each truck that leaves Azara daily, about seven thousand six hundred naira (N7,600) is remitted to the various tiers of government and the host community in this order; (Courtesy of the Project Manager, NBMPC Ltd., Azara.
Besides generating foreign income for the federation as well as for Nasarawa State, baryte exploration in Azara will save the nation from over spending on importation of the commodity thereby gaining foreign exchange.
Thanks to the federal government which has graciously banned the further importation of barytes into the country. This has, by no small means, encouraged and boosted local production of the solid minerals.
b. It is capable of preventing the people especially women and children from getting education. A visit to Azara mining site, one would notice that a majority of the workers there are mostly women and young girls.
7. STATE GOVERNMENT DIRECT INVESTMENT
5. COMMUNICATION NETWORK
This statistical analysis is courtesy of the Project Manager of the Nigeria Barite Mining and Processing Company (NBPMC) Limited, Azara. From the above analysis, it is evident that the state government earns about 52.6% from each trailer load leaving Azara whereas the Federal Governemnt earns about 47.4%. The revenue becomes very significant when it is considered against the backdrop that there are at least ten trailers which leave Azara on a daily basis,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], including Saturdays and Sundays. If a rough estimation is made, it would be discovered that Nasarawa State can make at least modest revenue of forty thousand naira (N 40,000), daily as royalties and fourteen million, six hundred thousand naira per annum. When this revenue is considered against the backdrop that only five out of the existing eighteen veins are currently being exploited and below capacity, several question would be begging for urgent answers. Some of the questions that would quickly arise are:
The government of Nasarawa State has a crucial role to play in ensuring the economic viability of solid minerals as a veritable alternative income for the state with particular reference to baryte exploration in Azara. The government should ensure that there is abundant peace and security of lives and property in the state. The government should discourage, in clear terms, the perpetuation of ethnic, religious or political conflicts. This has the effect of promoting the reputation of the state, thereby encouraging foreign and national investors to come and invest in the economy of the state. In a summary, the government should ensure the creation of a stable political climate.

2. It is also used as weight filler in paper industry. The whitish colour of the Azara baryte and its high specific gravity (S.G.) account for its better use in the paper industry.
5. It is used in building asbestos roofs and quality wall paper. As asbestos is increasingly becoming fashionable among Nigeria builders, this opens a new window for those companies to look inward for baryte. The high specific gravity quality and strategic location makes the Azara baryte a better alternative.
There is no valid contention of the fact that the discovery and eventual exploration of baryte in Azara has greatly increased the revenue base of Nasarawa State. Royalties and taxes are paid to the three tiers of government (the federal, the state and the local governments) by the firms exploiting the solid minerals.
6. INDUSTRIALIZATION OF THE STATE
HISTORY AND PROFILE OF AZARA BARYTE:
It should be borne in mind that, had these people - hundreds of them - not been employed by the exploration activities of baryte, the state government would have had to contend with serious social security and public security problems as many of them could have turned to criminals or thugs, which is essentially associated with unemployment.
c. It is capable of leading to ecological problems in the future.
6. VOCATIONAL/TECHNICAL TRAINING
11. CUSHIONING THE EFFECT OF MINING ON THE COMMUNITY
It is commonly held in many quarters that Nigeria is endowed with vast natural resources but bad management of the resources have kept the nation perpetually under-developed. This should not be the case with Nasarawa State. Hence, government should appoint only trustworthy and reputable persons, preferably reputable renowned religious leaders, to manage its resources in order to ensure that the state gets its revenue correctly and provide dividend of good leadership.
4. EXPAND AND STRENGTHEN BASIC SERVICES/INFRASTRUCTURE
8. The transportation and technical cost of exploiting Azara deposit is comparatively lower than that of importing the commodity from abroad. This will greatly save the country some foreign exchange, while, at the same time, developing local economic. Little wonder that the government has rightly banned the importation of baryte into the country thereby boosting local production and generating employment and general happiness.
Any sensitive government must learn the immense importance of industrialization in the rapid development of their economies. Many sensitive governments have thus set up or encouraged the setting up of industries in their various states. It therefore helps to reduce the over-dependence on crude oil. The only way of achieving this goal is to diversity their economies by encouraging rapid industrialization. Baryte is a veritable sector that could contribute over forty percent of the Gross National Product (GNP) if harnessed to the fullest and over sixty percent of foreign exchange earnings. The presence of solid minerals in a state or nation attracts both local and foreign investors to invest in such state or nation. For example, Rivers State is highly industrialized because of its natural resources - crude oil - which precipitated the establishment of multinational oil companies like Shell Petroleum, Chevron, Elf,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Total, Texaco, Mobil, and so on, to exploit the natural resources into finished product. This would be the case also with Nasarawa State if the government and people of the state embark on a serious drive to promote exploration activities going on in these sites, especially baryte exploration. Taxes and royalties are paid by the industries to the government. For instance, Lagos State government earns most of her revenue from taxes and royalties paid to her by industries and companies located the state.

INDUSTRIAL USAGE OF BARYTE
3. COMMUNITY EMPOWERMENT
Baryte has a number of economic and industrial usages. It is a solid mineral which has many industrial usages. The more common industrial usages are listed below:
If the government encourages private investors into the state and they come with industries and companies, there would be a natural tendency to increase the production level of the solid minerals. Increasing the number of industrial concerns in the state automatically enhances the chances of the exploration company getting larger markets for their products as raw materials for the industries. Such marketing facilities being in constant touch with distant customers, bulk purchasers of raw materials, and organized wholesales marketing sector for the state.
Baryte was first detected in Azara in the early 1960s (Courtesy of Geological Survey of Nigeria, 1965). Exploratory search lasted for about a decade, between 1975 and 1985 by the Nigeria Mining Corporation. The Nigeria Baryte Mining and Processing Company (NBMPC) Ltd., incorporated in 1988, was charged with the exploration and exploitation of baryte in Azara and any part of Nigeria where baryte is found. The (NBMPC) Ltd. is wholly owned by the Nigeria Mining Corporation with its Headquarters in Jos. Initial reconnaissance revealed eighteen (18) veins at areas like Azara, Aloshi, Akiri, Wuse and Keana in Awe Local Government Area. Out of these eighteen (18) veins, detail exploration works were carried out in five (5) and these revealed a total reserve of seven hundred and thirty thousand (730,000) metric tonnes of baryte. Veins 1, 2, 5, 17 and 18 are the five (5) veins in use.
The workers employed in the various mining exploration sites in the state will gradually become more skilled in the techniques of production thus discouraging the need for foreign technicians and experts.
RECOMMENDATIONS
Author's Bio:
There are basically two broad grades of barytes. They are the high specific gravity grade (High S.G.) and low specific gravity grades (Low S.G). These grades are commonly called high grades and low grades,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], respectively. The grades are measured in specific gravity unit of measurement and that can be done in laboratories. A grade falling below 4.O (S.G.) is classified as low grade baryte, whereas a grade that rises above, between, 4.2 (S.G.) and 4.5 (S.G.) is classified as high grade. The high grade is that which suits the oil and gas industry. Little wonder it is of higher demand and attracts higher cost. For example, at Azara site, the low grade sells for between two thousand naira (N 2000) and three thousand naira (N 3000) for a metric tonne, whereas the high grade sells for five thousand naira (N 5000) for a metric tonne. At Port Harcourt, the price is remarkably higher as a metric tonne of high grade baryte sells for about twenty thousand naira (N 20,000). This is apparently because there are both the processing factories and the refineries there. This product could also be locally processed and sold as finished product for delivering to refineries in Nigeria and abroad. It is particularly interesting to know that a metric tonne of finished product sells for one hundred and twenty thousand naira (N 120, 000) (Courtesy of Nigeria Baryte Mining and Processing Company Limited, NBMPC Ltd.)This is an area which, I considered, should interest the government and people of Nasarawa State.

3. It is also used in rubber processing industry. It is invaluable in coagulating rubber even in the absence of sulphur which helps in vulcanizing rubber.
ECONOMIC VIABILITY OF BARYTE
Baryte is a combination of barium and sulphur. In its natural form, baryte is composed of barium sulphate. It is represented in the elemental description as BaSo4 that is because its principal constituent’s elements are baryon (BaO) 32.50% and sulphur (51.10%). It is a non metallic (heavy) mineral which belongs to the variety of caulk. It generally appears whitish or crystalline at outcrop scale. There is however traces of yellow and brown patches which are noticeable in hand specimen. As a dense mineral that it is, baryte is mixed with other minerals and chemicals in the preparation of building mud for drilling mud in the oil and gas industry.
Government should initiate objective policies aimed at training young men and women to remain and work as skilled or semi skilled labour in the exploration firms to boost production of unfinished products as well as finished products from the solid minerals, especially baryte, in the state. This has an additional effect of providing human capital development for the state. To achieve this also, vocational/technical schools and/or science colleges and polytechnics should be established with emphasis on solid minerals exploration since the state is the home of solid minerals. For instance the Petroleum Training Institute (PTI) in Efurun, Delta State was established based on technical training of young men and women to remain and work in oil companies.
Government has an urgent duty to provide and up grade social services like pipe borne safe drinking water,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], electricity, improved road network, and housing (especially for skilled miners), and so on. This will encourage more investors to establish mining industries in the state to exploit the solid minerals and also take advantage of the available infrastructure to ease the evacuation of raw materials and goods from the respective sites where they are produced to areas where they are needed. For example,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the access road to Azara from Lafia is hardly motorable. Lorries fall very often and this, if allowed to continue, could discourage potential investors.
ABSTRACT
Nasarawa State, known by its sobriquet as “Home of Solid Minerals”, was created out of old Plateau State on October 1, 1996, by the General Sani Abacha military regime. It is made up of thirteen local government areas, with Lafia as the administrative seat of the state. It is located in the Middle Belt zone of Nigeria and lies between latitude 7 and 9 degrees north and longitude 7 and 10 degrees east. It shares common boundaries with Benue State to the south, Kogi State to the west, Abuja, Federal Capital Territory, to the north-west. To the north is Kaduna State; while to the east is Taraba State. It has a population of 1,207,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],876. (1991 census). The people are hospitable and accommodating and have cultural and traditional affinity with each other. Christianity, Islam, and Traditional religion exist side by side among the people. The landmass is blessed with rich soil and the climate conditions which favours the abundant production of food crops. The state is also endowed with solid mineral deposits like gemstones, clay, baryte, granite, etc.
10. ADEQUATE FUNDING
Having carried out this on-the-spot assessment of solid minerals in Nasarawa State, with particular reference to baryte exploration in Azara, I wish to proffer certain recommendations for the consideration of the state government.
8. INCREASES IN TECHNICAL SKILLS
There is no gain saying the fact that the discovering of baryte in Azara has greatly helped Nasarawa State in the eradication of unemployment in the state. It is an undeniable fact that baryte exploration in Azara has provided employment for a great majority of indigenes and residents of Nasarawa State, especially Awe Local Government Area with particular emphasis on Azara community. These people would otherwise have been unemployed and this would have given the state government a serious headache. Hundreds of residents and indigenes of the state, especially women, girls and youths have been gainfully employed at the Azara mining veins. Some are diggers, loaders, miners, machine operators, and so on. These people earn a worthy income daily. This research revealed that the least paid worker earns, at least seven hundred naira (N700), daily. If that is calculated over a period of thirty days (a month) they would be earning twenty one thousand (N 21,000) monthly. To think that these workers are the least paid at the sites and they are unskilled is amazing. If they were to await the scarce public service employment and get it, they would probably have been earning the minimum wage which is grossly incomparable to the income they happily earn at the mining sites.
3. INDUSTRIAL BANKS
Industrial banks should be established to take care of the smooth running of the exploration industry. These banks can provide capital loans or grants to local or foreign investors in the industry.
It is my recommendation, therefore, based on the three major associated problems of mining, that government should encourage the people not to completely abandon agriculture. They should be taught the benefits of having more than one item as the economic product of a people. Also, serious sensitization, which may be aided by legislation, should begin, to encourage parents to let their wards go to school. In addition to this,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], nomadic schools should be set up at mining sites to ensure that the young ones will have the benefit of going to school. By so doing Nasarawa State will be investing in its future. As for ecological problems associated with baryte, and indeed solid minerals exploration, government should quickly get experts to access,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], study and make appropriate recommendation for the tackling of the likely problems before it wrecks havoc.
Some of these solid minerals are found in each of the thirteen local government areas of the state. Akwanga Local Government Area has cassiterite, clay, columbite, feldspars, gemstones, ziroon, mica, and granite. Awe Local Government Area is endowed with baryte, clay, limestone, sodium chloride, sphaterite and gulena. Doma Local Government Area is richly blessed with silica sand and clay. Karu Local Government Area has clay, Silica Sand, and granite. Keffi Local Government Area is blessed with clay, talc, gemstones, quartz,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], mica and granite. Lafia Local Government Area has clay and silica sand. Nasarawa Local Government Area has Cassiterite, columbite, clay, granite and tantalite. Nasarawa-Eggon Local Government Area is endowed with clay, feldspars, quartz and cassiterite. Obi Local Government Area is richly blessed with clay, coal, and barites. Toto Local Government Area has marble, iron ore, dolomite and clay. Wamba Local Government Area is blessed with quartz, clay,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], gemstone and granite. Keane Local Government Area has sodium chloride, clay,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and limestone. These statistics is courtesy of Nasarawa State Government Big Exercise Book by Abdullahi Adamu (Sarkin Yakin Keffi).
A visit to Azara community is tantamount to a disconnection from communication. There is no communication network providing services in the area. This is not encouraging to outside and foreign investors. The world is in a stage of globalization and communication is one major tool for making the world a ‘global village’. Communication leads to transformation and transformation leads to change in attitude. The government of Nasarawa State should encourage the telecommunication companies to extend their services to cover mining areas of the state, especially Azara community where it is most urgently needed.
5. IMPROVED STANDARD OF LIVING:
Local Government Levy - N3000
The discovery and exploration of baryte deposits at Azara has tremendously empowered to people and government of the host community. These people do not necessarily have to remain a burden to the government any longer. The government would no longer have to experience sleepless nights trying to provide social services for them. The community is being involved in the exploration process as forty percent (40%) of the mining right is reserved for the local community. Again, this information is courtesy of the Project Manager, NBMPC Ltd Azara.
Government should replace the mining machines with more recent or modern ones as the ones currently being used are obsolete especially that of the Nigeria Baryte Mining and Processing Company Ltd. (a division of the Nigeria Mining Corporation).

1. It is mixed with other minerals and chemicals and used as an inert volume and weight filler in drilling mud. Its high specific gravity (S.G.) which gives additional weight to the mud helps to prevent blow out during drilling. Major servicing and oil companies in the oil and gas industry in the Niger Delta import baryte for their industrial operations. The Azara baryte is thus invaluable, especially that it has the right mineralogical and geochemical properties needed for drilling operations. The high specific gravity (4.45), which is commonly referred to as the high grade, can be tailored to fit any mud type. It reduces the problem of “Baryte sag,” (loss of weighting property).
6. It is also used in chemical industries for agro-allied applications. For example, it is used in the making of animal feeds, fertilizers, and so on.
Mining activities have various negative effects on the host community.
Federal Government N 3, 600
4. It is used in the glass manufacturing industry
2. REVENUE GENERATION
7. CREATION OF ORGANIZED MARKETING SECTOR
“What is the government doing to benefit from this lucrative solid mineral?” …“What are the constraints of improving production of the solid mineral?”… “Can’t the state government establish its own processing company to benefit from this venture thereby creating more jobs for its teaming population?” “What can the government do to boost production and encourage local processing?”
7. Recent application in the pharmaceutical companies for drugs has made the search for baryte like the search for the mythical Treasure Island.
2. PRIVATIZATION
The government should allow and encourage private participation in the exploration activities in the state, especially baryte. Enabling laws and bye laws should be enacted to protect and ‘insure’ the various private investors or participants.
4. SOURCE OF FOREIGN EXCHANGE EARNING
9. REPLACEMENT OF OBSOLETE MACHINES
