Bitumen is the thickest form of petroleum there is, made up of 83% carbon, 10% hydrogen and lesser amounts of oxygen, nitrogen, sulphur, and other elements. It is a natural polymer of low molecular weight: at lower temperatures it is rigid and brittle, at room temperature it is flexible, at higher temperatures it flows.
What are Oil Sands? Oil sands are a mixture of sand, water, clay and bitumen. They are found in several locations around the globe including Venezuela, USA, Russia and Canada. Oil sands are a mixture of sand, water, clay and bitumen. Bitumen is oil that is too heavy or thick to flow or be pumped without being diluted or heated. At 10Â° C/50Â° F, bitumen is hard as a hockey puck. Some bitumen is found within 70 metres (200 feet) of the surface, but the majority is deeper underground.
