The most valuable resources are found along the coastal plains.
Although Africa is rich in resources, they are unevenly distributed.
Aside from fertile soil, Africa has very few natural resources.

Statement#1--Oil on the plains; copper, diamonds and other minerals in the interior. I don't think I could claim the most valuable resources are on the coasts. Read the textbook to be certain.
Statement #2--This is generally true from what I have gathered.
Statement #3--Absolutely false. In fact, it is exactly the opposite.

The first statement is false, the 2nd is true, the third is false. A good Atlas showing global resources would help you eg Times World Atlas.
