OverviewExcerpt from The Oil-Shales of the Lothians: Part I. The Geology of the Oil-Shale Fields; Part II. Methods of Working the Oil-Shales; Part III. The Chemistry of the Oil-Shales The Scottish oil-shale industry is now mainly located in a belt of territory about six miles broad that stretches from Dalmeny and Abercorn, on the shores of the Firth of Forth, southwards across the fertile tract between the river Almond and the Bathgate Hills to the moorland district of Cobbinshaw and Tarbrax. Throughout this region there are various important mining centres, such as Broxburn, Uphall, East Calder, mid-calder, West Calder, and Addiewell, with large populations, mainly, if not wholly, dependent on this branch of economics for their support.
