dc.description.abstractOil sands are classified as unconventional hydrocarbon plays and are being exploited to augment global energy needs. Nigeria has the largest conventional oil industry in Africa, but is also endowed with abundant oil sand deposits found within the Afowo Formation of the Eastern Dahomey Basin. In this study, outcrop samples of clay, oil sand, and bitumen seepage from a forestry reserve (J4) in Ogun State, South Western Nigeria were evaluated for organic matter maturity and hydrocarbon composition.en_US
