Match each Nigerian mineral or energy resource site on the left with its corresponding geographical location or industrial application on the right.
- Shiroro Power StationHydroelectric dam constructed on the Kaduna River in Niger State
- Coal deposits of the Mamu FormationSub-bituminous coal fields centered around Enugu and Kogi States
- Itakpe Hill depositsHigh-grade iron ore reserves supplying the domestic steel industry in Kogi State
- Ewekoro and Gboko reservesSedimentary limestone deposits providing raw materials for cement manufacturing in Ogun and Benue States
Cevap
Shiroro Power Station matches the hydroelectric dam on the Kaduna River in Niger State; Coal deposits of the Mamu Formation match sub-bituminous coal fields centered around Enugu and Kogi States; Itakpe Hill deposits match high-grade iron ore reserves supplying the domestic steel industry in Kogi State; Ewekoro and Gboko reserves match sedimentary limestone deposits providing raw materials for cement manufacturing in Ogun and Benue States.
Each resource site correctly maps to its geographical location and primary application: Shiroro is a major hydroelectric station on the Kaduna River in Niger State; coal is extracted from Cretaceous Mamu Formation strata in Enugu and Kogi; Itakpe in Kogi contains high-grade iron ore reserves; Ewekoro and Gboko supply key limestone inputs for regional cement industries.
