What are the natural resources and industries in Nigeria?

There is the obvious crude oil which everyone knows Nigeria to have. In addition, Nigeria has natural resources like tin, coal and bitumen. Nigeria is also a leading producer of agricultural products like coacoa and groundnuts (peanuts to you Americans)

Nigeria cannot really be 'accused' of being an industrialized nation, so there are no industries that stand out. More than 50% of the country work in units of 3 or less, and manufacturing is almost non-existent int his country of over 120 million people.

Labor is pretty cheap in Nigeria, so there is a killing to be made for someone with the patience and capital to invest in pretty much any industry in Nigeria
