Mineral Resources
The District has gold deposits at Tiira, where 420 meters of reef carrying visible gold were discovered. The industry had declined until recently exploration works are on-going. Tin deposits have also been identified in Lunyo Sub-county; however, there is need for thorough exploration of the same to establish the extent of deposits and economic viability. The District has a high potential for stone quarrying, especially in Buteba Sub-county, and large deposits of sand for construction
