Potential massive volatilization of trace metals from oil shales with a clay matrix is predicted on the basis of preliminary laboratory ashing tests. The role of carbonate matrix in suppressing volatilization intensity is demonstrated and some environmental implications are discussed.
Differing degrees of oxidation, caused by weathering at the surface, are evident in the Julia Creek oil shale deposit. Weathering results in decreased oil yields and its extent is indicated by the oil/organic carbon ratio. In a series of carefully selected samples, this ratio (by weight) varies from
