Notes
- ↑ Wikipedia has a lot of information about tar sands.
- ↑ Bruce Biossat. An oil-hungry world eyes Alberta's sand, Rome News-Tribune, 1973-11-23. Retrieved on 2010-06-22. “Great as is the Athabasca spread, where real scientific exploration began just 60 years ago, it's not the full story. Alberta hold three other oil sands deposits -- Wabasca just southwest of Athabasca, Cold Lake to the south, Peace River to the west.”

Retrieved on 2010-06-22. “According to the Petroleum Economist: "Although tar sands occur in more than 70 countries, the bulk is found in Canada in four regions: Athabasca, Wabasca, Cold Lake, and Peace River; together covering an area of some 77,000 km2.”
