Description: Granites are considered as safe for safe repository of the dangerous substances, storage of gases or liquids. It is anticipated, that compact granite mass is impermeable and present fractures will be tightly sealed. In framework of project 1H-PK/31, it has been found that sections of apparently compact granite mass are highly permeable. Permeability under natural pressure conditions was detected in wide strip around sealed fracture. Results on the function of permeability were gathered on one site and might not be generalized. Proposed project aims to answer following questions: Is the inter-granular permeability in granites general property? What is its origin? Is it form or effect of the EDZ zone? What affects its parameters? Is it detectable in field? Thus this project will include: literature review, lab and field research, modeling, development of measuring gauges, methods proposal. The results will yield useful knowledge for evaluation of rock mass safety for underground repository and storage. |
