3. Results and discussion 3.1. Beneficiation of the bentonite ore The results of beneficiation showed that applying a flowsheet based on attrition scrubbing of the crushed bentonite ore followed by classification with a hydrocyclone succeeded in removing much of the associated quartz and calcite as an underflow Žabout 15 wt.%. fraction.

justify the need for beneficiation. With 15 g and 30 g of local bentonite, 27 ml and 11 ml, 600 rpm readings of 18 and 34, with 1.6 and 3.7 were obtained for fluid loss, rheology and YP/PV, respectively. The beneficiated local bentonite with periwinkle and Mucuna solannie gave acceptable results at 4 g-5 g concentrations, with slight devia-
The local mud PH values responded positively on beneficiation with 1.0g of potash, the modification raised the mud PH value to fall within the standard range of 9.5 to 12.5.

The research work revealed that beneficiation of local bentonite with sodium carbonate, the addition of polymer (CMC), and an increase in clay concentration influenced the rheological and flow properties of mud samples. With proper beneficiation of local bentonite in Nigeria, they can be made suitable for drilling operations in the oil and gas ...
The vast deposits of Nigerian bentonite clay have many significant uses in different aspects of industrial fields of which the oil and gas industry is a potential consumer of this clay mineral. In this review article, the key mineralogical characteristics and rheological properties of these clay deposits in various locations and their related application for drilling mud formulation …
In this study, the locally available raw bentonite clays were investigated to evaluate its potential use as a mud for borehole drilling operation after its improvement with the additives.
The raw Pindiga clay sample had high iron oxide content up to 26.54 wt% which reduced to 24.15 wt% after beneficiation, while the raw Gambe clay contained 11.87 wt% iron oxide which reduced to 4. ...
