Granting RESOURCE will grant unlimited tablespace privilege.

They will then be able to create a table in any valid tablespace.

One way to see what privileges are granted by resource is to grant it, connect as the user it was just granted to and do a "select * from session_privs;"

To find the privilege related views you might want to use "select * from dict where table_name like '%PRIV%';"
Note that resource does not show up in role_sys_privs.

The RESOURCE role is created via $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/sql.bsq You can look at that file, or you could query

DBA_ROLES 
DBA_ROLE_PRIVS 
DBA_SYS_PRIVS 
DBA_TAB_PRIVS 
DBA_COL_PRIVS

Choosing a tablespace for a segment, however, is determined by the quotas allowed to the user. Check view DBA_TS_QUOTAS.
