Feb 26, 2018· The Okaba coal deposits in the Northern Anambra Basin contain higher values of HI, lowest values of OI and inertinite content and correspondingly had the shortest combustibility time. It also has very little visible smoke and assumed to be the most suitable for smokeless fuel production and electrical energy generation.
