[edit] Maps

Would we be ok copying the maps from the USGS/DOE reports witht he reserves locations and putting them here if the USGS/DOE themselves have takent hem from another source. was thinking it would be quite good to put a gallery of sorts or something liek that at the bottom Philbentley 13:57, 21 July 2007 (UTC)

Yes, the US maps are public domain, and can be put into WP with no reservations.

[edit] Clarification

Re: Significant oil shale deposits are located in Jordan (5,242 million tonnes of shale oil or 65 billion tonnes of oil shale) and Israel (550 million tonnes of shale oil or 6.5 billion tonnes of oil shale). Should we just use million tonnes, since that is un-ambiguous as a measure? Novickas 15:58, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
