Senator Plang made the disclosure while speaking to newsmen in Jos, the Plateau State capital.

The lawmaker said the proposal was an economic and developmental bill that seek to deepen the knowledge of Nigerians in Geology, Mineral Resources and Development.

“We have the University of Petroleum, because we have petrol; we have Maritime University because we have waterways.We also have University of Agriculture because we have lands for agriculture. But we are unable to have the university of mines and solid mineral development even when the country is naturally endowed with so many mineral resources unharnessed,” Plang said.

He explained that when established, the University will deepen the country’s knowledge in mineral exploration technology.
