Geochemistry and Geological Factors Governing Exploitation of Selected Canadian Oil Shale Deposits
註釋The Mississippian, lacustrine lamosites of the New BrunswickAlbert Formation yield the largest amount of hydrocarbons (100litres/tonne) and have a high potential in a linked retorting andco-combustion with coal process. The stellarite and associatedcoal of the Oil-Coal Seam at Pictou, Nova Scotia, may be a viableresource in the area. The Kettle Point Formation and theCollingwood Member of the Lindsay Formation of southern Ontarioyield moderate amounts of hydrocarbon on pyrolysis (40litres/tonne), but both give significantly higher yields whenhydroretorted. The Cretaceous Boyne and Favel formations inSaskatchewan probably represent the largest volumetric reservesof shale oil, but give modest yields, and face competition fromthe nearby heavy oils and oil sands to the west.
