What does bitumen mean?
Bitumen sands are a natural sand or sandstone deposit which at some stage had been saturated with hydrocarbons. But which at some later stage had been exposed to conditions such that only the heavy (or long-chain) molecules remain. Or at least from which the lighter liquids and volatiles have disappeared. Actually a very common form of hydrocarbon deposit.
