" 1. The removal of the bitumen from the bitumen carrying sands (having relatively small clay component) is achieved without chemicals and results in "tailings" that are dry and environmentally benign." SOLV tried to make this work in their pilot system and failed. " 4. There are lots of instances of industrial processes, including mining, where sulfuric acid leaching is carried out safely and environmentally soundly. Large scale copper leaching is carried out in Nevada as one example." I agree that problems are rare, but a similar ore leaching operation caused the disaster in Spain cited by TheDuke. Seemed ironical to me. Larry
