This book provides thorough knowledge and detailed information of
oil shales using a range of conventional and unconventional
techniques and methodologies combined to elucidate the composition
of oil shale deposits. As these rocks are mined for energy
production their composition and mineral constituents are of
special interests to individuals and communities that are likely to
be effected by these resources when mined and processed. The book
highlights the environmental and health hazards of the spent shales
after processing. These are significantly greater in volume than
the rocks originally mined before processing. Toxic metals tend to
double and triple their concentrations in the spent shales and will
be leached into water sources and soils.Since oil shales as an
energy resource are totally uneconomical; all oil shales, their
mining and processing are heavily subsidised by governments and
institutions using taxpayers money.
