Gilsonite is a natural, resinous hydrocarbon. This natural asphalt or Natural bitumen is similar to hard petroleum asphalt and is often called a natural asphalt, asphaltite, uintaite, or asphaltum.
Gilsonite is soluble in aromatic and aliphatic solvents, as well as petroleum asphalt.
Due to its unique compatibility, Gilsonite is frequently used to harden softer petroleum products. Gilsonite in mass is a shiny, black substance similar in appearance to the mineral obsidian.
It is brittle and can be easily crushed into a dark brown powder.
Gilsonite is found below the earth's surface in vertical veins or seams that are generally between two and six feet in width, but can be as wide as 28 feet.
The veins are nearly parallel to each other and are oriented in a northwest to southeast direction.
They extend many miles in length and as deep as 1500 feet.
The vein will show up on the surface as a thin outcropping and gradually widen as it goes deeper.
Due to the narrow mining face, Gilsonite is mined today, much like it was 50 or 100 years ago.
The primary difference is that modern miners use pneumatic chipping hammers and mechanical hoists.

Gilsonite, also known as natural asphalt resinous and brittle and glossy shape found in southern Turkey since the 1930. Generally it is a hard hydrocarbon and is often refer to as a Gilsonit, natural hydrocarbon, asphaltite, uintaite, or asphaltum. It is soluble in both aromatic and aliphatic solvents, as well as petroleum asphalt.

Paint-like mixtures of gilsonite, solvents, and other additives are used to coat and seal asphalt pavements like driveways and parking lots. Gilsonite is also used as an adhesive and waterproofing agent in the manufacture of roofing felt. Addition of gilsonite makes some paint and wood stain formulations more durable.
Gilsonite is a natural, resinous hydrocarbon, in mass is a shiny, black substance, but sometimes it occurs as a brownish-black color that is similar in appearance to coal or a hard petroleum asphalt and is often called a natural asphalt, asphaltite, uintaite, or asphaltum. Gilsonite is used in more than 160 products, A common application of it is in bitumen blending.

Gilsonite is a natural, resinous hydrocarbon found in the Uintah Basin in northeastern Utah; thus, it is also called Uintaite. This natural asphalt is similar to a hard petroleum asphalt and is often called a natural asphalt, asphaltite, uintaite, or asphalt. Gilsonite is soluble in aromatic and aliphatic solvents, as well as petroleum asphalt. Due to its unique compatibility, Gilsonite is frequently used to harden softer petroleum products. Gilsonite in mass is a shiny, black substance similar in appearance to the mineral obsidian. It is brittle and can be easily crushed into a dark brown powder. When added to asphalt cement or hot mix asphalt in production, Gilsonite helps produce paving mixes of dramatically increased stability.
