article · Data in Brief
To identify potential heavy minerals in the Mbiame floodplain in the northwest of Cameroon, geochemical and petrographical data from alluvial deposits from the were utilized. The grains are mixed with inclusions of zircon and ilmenite, and the megacrysts come from felsic to intermediate igneous rocks like old basalt-andesite and magmatic gneiss. The Mbiame region lies between latitudes 6° 8′ and 6° 24′ N and longitudes 10° 39′ and 10° 57′ E, East of Mount Oku. One of the principal volcanic massifs on the Cameroon Volcanic Line (CVL), Mt. Oku is situated over a basement composed of migmatites, biotite diorites, and Pan-African granite-gneisses that date back to 600 Ma.
