Abstract
⺠In-situ bitumen production is not causing regional metal contamination at Cold Lake. ⺠Sediment cores show post-industrial increases of Cd, Pb and Hg concentrations. ⺠These increased concentrations level off prior to large-scale bitumen extraction. ⺠One core demonstrated Cu and V increases concurrent with Cd, Pb and Hg increases. ⺠Soil samples collected near the oil field had minor metal enrichment.
