	abstract = {The geology and subsequent mineral composition of oil sands deposits have important consequences for their processing behaviour. Differences in oil sands processability and extraction yields can be dependent upon many factors including the composition of the mineral components and the organic complexes that are associated with certain minerals. These mineral-organic associations help provide the bridge which leads to carry over of bitumen with the tailings as well as carry over of water and mineral matter with the product. Characterization of the minerals via various laboratory techniques and the relationship of these measurements to processing behaviour is discussed. Portions of this work were presented at the 1988 annual meetings of The Canadian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy and the Chemical Institute of Canada.
