Yes. Compressed or liquid both 99+%. Best I have seen documented from an oxycon is 94%. Available volume is typically much lower from oxycons as well. I would never suggest that a beginner working boro start off with an oxycon. Too many issues that a beginner just does not need to deal with on top of learning the material.
