Asphalt, also known as bitumen, is a sticky, black, highly viscous liquid or semi-solid form of petroleum. It can be found in natural deposits or as a refined product, and is classified as a pitch or tar.  Naturally occurring asphalt is sometimes specified by the term “crude bitumen” and the Canadian province of Alberta has most of the world’s reserves of natural asphalt in the Athabasca oil sands, which cover 142,000 square kilometres (55,000 sq mi), an area larger than England.
