Abstract:
... The leaching of ²⁹Si-doped SON68 French nuclear waste glass was investigated in Callovo-Oxfordian (COx) water in the presence of P235GH stainless steel and COx argillite. Experiments were carried out to understand the effect of near-field materials on the rate of glass dissolution and the migration of ²⁹Si in the claystone core. Tests were performed by using percolation cells containing glass and ...

Abstract:
... Opalinus clay (OPA) is currently being investigated as a potential host rock for radioactive waste repository. The construction of this repository will lead to an excavation-damaged zone (EDZ) in the surrounding. Its sealing ability is crucial for the safety assessment of the geological repository. The sealing ability of OPA has a close relationship with its water retention and gas permeability be ...

Abstract:
... Drillholes represent one of the clearest lines of evidence for predation of benthic invertebrates in the fossil record and are frequently used as a primary proxy for predation intensity in the fossil record. Drillholes are abundant in the late Cretaceous and Cenozoic, but their occurrence is patchy in older deposits of the Mesozoic. The inconsistent record of drillholes in pre-Cretaceous deposits ...

Abstract:
... Low-permeability clay formations provide good candidate host rocks for geological disposal of radioactive waste, because there is expected to be limited movement of gas or water through the formation. However, when constructing tunnels, the stress state in the formation around the tunnel will change, which can lead to damage to the formation, changing the bulk hydraulic properties of the formation ...
