Petroleum is in a liquid form. It is retrieved by drilling into the earth and then pumping it out. Oil rigs and derricks. Various means of obtaining petroleum from tar sands and shale deposits are being investigated. Tars sands are not expected to be "mined", but treated in situ to generate liquid / gaseous petroleum. Oil shale may require mining. Neither of these is currently economically viable.
