about 3 trillion barrels of oil, and about half of this may be recoverable, depending on available technology and economic conditions,” Mittal testified.

“The Rand Corporation, a nonprofit research organization, estimates that 30 to 60 percent of the oil shale in the Green River Formation can be recovered,” Mittal told the subcommittee. “At the midpoint of this estimate, almost half of the 3 trillion barrels of oil would be recoverable. This is an amount about equal to the entire world's proven oil reserves.”

Q.E.D.
============================================

Q.E.D. This is definitive?

No, it is partial, and citation of it verified you ignorant. You were provided with full details from several sources including your own, either deliberately ignored through lie of omission to support your claim, or you ignorantly didn't bother to fully read or comprehend.

You failed to pass off your claptrap, and consequently prematurely awarded yourself the degree of Q.E.D., thinking you demolished an opponent challenge so decisively as to be essentially unchallengeable.
