Athabasca Oil Sands: Information from Answers.com (3202 words) |
 | The Athabasca oil sands are named after the Athabasca River which cuts through the heart of the deposit, and traces of the heavy oil are readily observed on the river banks. |
| The Athabasca oil sands are primarily located in and around the city of Fort McMurray which was still, in the late 1950s, primarily a wilderness outpost of a few hundred people whose main economic activities included fur trapping and salt mining. |
| The Athabasca Oil Sands are now featured prominently in international trade talks, with energy rivals China and the United States both negotiating with Canada for a bigger share of the oil sands' rapidly increasing output. |
