In the immediate area of western Colorado are some 2,000 square miles known to contain oil shale— the heart of the largest shale de- posits in the world. Government and private students of the field es- timate that it will yleld a barrel to a barrel and a half of crude oil from each ton of shale treated. Victor C. Alderson, former presi- dent of the Colorado School of Mines, places the productive value of the flelds at between 60 and C0 billlon gallons of oil—enough to last the United States for a cen- tury at the present annual rate of consumption, which Is 750 to 800 million barrels. The deposits are most extensive in fhe vicinity of Grand Junction, DeBeque and Palisades. Some of the shale mountains rise to 3,000 feet. The oil strata range from a few inches to several feet in thick- ness, and in color from light tan to a dark mahogany. The shales do not contain ofl— merely the elements hecessary to oil. The oil {8 manufactured from the rocks. Patents for hundreds of production processes have been granted, most of them to Colora- doans, and several small plants are now in operation seeking to prove «conomic feasibility of the process. A similar conversion of shale to oil is practiced in Scotland, but it is not deemed pr: cal for handling the Colorado shale. Some authori- h ties hold that oil can be produced i N - e " e N from the shale, when need arises, ; : i MF,PG"“”"\\ ;i at a commercial cost of $1 a barrel.

F: ers near DeBe- que say they have picked shale rocks off their fields, burned them, and found that on the next year the arain grows from six inches to {wo feet taller on the spots where the black ash of the rocks was left, and that it also produces a heavier vield. Operators have found in the treat- ment of shale a process for indus- trial power. When heat is applied within an airtight drum to the shale for the manufacture of oil, .
