Gilsonite created from crude oil after milions of years in high pressure and temprature which is naturally-occurring mixture of bitumen and mineral matter formed by oil seepages in the earth’s crust. Gilsonite in rock form is available in west of Iran between Ilam and Kermanshah and Iraq border. The first Gilsonite came from Caribbean country Trinidad and Tobago and it was contenting 55% hydrocarbon and the rest minerals. Initially this kind of Gilsonite used as additive in road construction. There is another origin of Gilsonite which is coming from other city in Kuhdasht belong to Lorestan province in Iran.
