Informative but....

But the biggest oil spill in the world belongs to mother nature herself
by a long shot, spanning from Alberta to Saskatchewan, they call them
oilsands as right on the surface to 10 meters right off the surface be
oil and sand. Sort of like an oil field on the surface. Indians use to
coat their canoes with it to seal them tight.

You clean up the sand, you have beach sand and oil. We are doing well
in learning how to clean it up. When done, a new lake for boaters with
much cleaner sand.
