Deep Groundwater Total Dissolved Solids Mapping in the Dakota Group, Williston Basin, USA
Groundwater, EarlyView.Abstract Growing concern about the quantity of available freshwater around the world has led to interest in surveying groundwater total dissolved solids (TDS) below water well depths. Deep TDS has not been systematically mapped, and there is much to learn about the distribution and controls on deeper groundwater. In sedimentary basins across the United

Applicability of oil shale of dmitrievsky and kotsebinsky deposits for in situ conversion [PDF]
, 2016 Oil shale is not almost mined now. The main reason of this is in uncompetitiveness of its miningcompared with coal, oil, natural gas. However, the innovative approaches to mining could probably change thesituation.

Synthesis and analysis of jet fuel from shale oil and coal syncrudes [PDF]
Thirty-two jet fuel samples of varying properties were produced from shale oil and coal syncrudes, and analyzed to assess their suitability for use. TOSCO II shale oil and H-COAL and COED syncrudes were used as starting materials. The processes used were
