LONG TERM DIFFUSION PROJECT 2005-2008 Phase I Work Package 1: Monopole experiment An in situ diffusion experiment where RN-tracers diffuse into the rock matrix with subsequent geochemical analysis of matrix samples, combined with predictive and post mortem modelling exercises to increase confidence in the modelling of long-term and large-scale diffusion processes. Work Package 2: In situ porosity Characterisation of the pore space geometry, including determination of in situ porosity for comparison with laboratory-derived data, using the C-14 PMMA technique and the NHC-9 chemical porosimetry technique. Work Package 3: Natural tracer Study (NTS) A study of natural tracers in the rock matrix to elucidate evidence for longterm diffusion processes. Work Package 4: Diffusion Processes Study (DPS) Detailed characterisation of the flow paths in a water-conducting fracture and investigation of the in situ matrix diffusion paths in core material from earlier GTS experiments.

HYRL:n tavoite to devise a new application based on the PMMA method in combination with quantitative petrography tools for in situ rock matrix characterisation gain information on the reliability of laboratory-based rock characterisation methods by quantitative investigation on the effects of rock stress release on total and mineral-specific porosities to better understand diffusion in a heterogeneous rock matrix by new developed modelling tools
tulokset pore types building an interconnected network : -Grain boundary pores mainly around quartz and feldspar grains -Sheet silicate pores in shear bands consisting of muscovite, biotite and chlorite -Microfractures (fine cracks) in large quartz and feldspar grains Pore distribution was found bimodal; pore apertures were around 300 nm and 20 µm PMMA porosity: in situ 0.6% compared to porosity at lab 0.9%
tulokset In situ 14 C-PMMA autoradiographic technique for rock matrix characterisation was developed Know how transfer within in situ experiments at underground rock laboratory Diffusion simulation using digitised autoradiograph images was done Interpretation of experiments using an inversion method to seek the local diffusion parameters was done One university thesis will be done in 2009
