Oil sands are recovered using two main methods drilling in situ and mining The method used depends on how deep the reserves are deposited About 20 per cent of the oil sands reserves are located close enough to the surface to be mined using large shovels and trucks You can learn more about oil sands mining in this explainer video below Silica sand can cost between $50 to over $300 per ton The cost depends on location of the sand mine and delivery location Silica sand is composed of quartz and is also called frac sand since it is used in the production of natural gas and oil

Oil sands are a loose sand deposit which contain a very viscous form of petroleum known as bitumenOil sands are actually found all over the world and are sometimes referred to as tar sands or bituminous sands Alberta s oil sands contain on average about 10 bitumen 5 water and 85 solidsMost of the solids are coarse silica ar sands mining operations present a much more significant risk because they produce large volumes of waste in the form of mine tailings six barrels of tailings per barrel of bitumen extracted These tailings a slurry of water sand fine clay and residual bitumen are stored in vast wastewater reservoirs
