Abstract: Road material compositions, systems for uses and methods of making are provided in which the road material includes an asphaltene mixture. The asphaltene mixture generally includes at least one of the following: a surfactant, peptizer, stabilizer and light end hydrocarbons. The asphaltene mixture is combined with waste cuttings from a drill site and an aggregate to form a road-based material. The road-based material, thus, re-uses drill cuttings waste avoiding its disposal and the high costs associated with disposal. The road-based material is suitable for high and low traffic roads, oil roads, black top, as a patch mix and as a road base. The asphaltene mixture and the road-based material when formed are capable of immediate use as well as long-term storage. The asphaltene mixture and road-based material may both be readily modified for small and large scale production.
