"Shale gas is one of the most popular themes nowadays. But in spite of the fact that much is already said about it and many scientific works are written, thanks to certain environmental groups comparing it with natural gas, in the minds of consumers shale gas looks like an alternative, cheap, though very dangerous fuel. However, it is not so in reality.
Shale gas is the same natural gas that is extracted in Russia; differences only lie in their deposits and purity of the extracted product. This gas is extracted from shale formations. In plain language, it is extracted from rock and fossil beds, which it is enough to just split and stratify. They presumably formed at the bottom of sea lagoons 450 million years ago out of plant and animal remains. These layers, in particular, are divided into flammable, clay and crystalline ones."
