The study assessed the effect of steam processing on the mineral element content of five composite sample of blood meal sourced from each of cattle, goat and sheep. The mineral composition of five composite samples of blood meal sourced from each of cattle, goat and sheep were analysed for the presence of the following mineral elements: sodium and potassium using flame photometry; phosphorus using colorimetric technique; while calcium, magnesium, iron, manganese, zinc and nickelusing atomic absorption spectroscopy respectively for both the steam processed and non-steam processed blood meal. The result indicated that steam processing significant elevate the concentration of sodium, potassium, calcium, phosphorus, magnesium and manganese while zinc and nickel content depreciates but the concentration of iron and copper remains unaffected by steam processing in the various blood meal sourced from cattle, goat and sheep (P<0.05).
