Updated 3D structural-geological model of the HLW deep repository former potential locality Čihadlo
The updated 3D structural-geological model of the HLW deep repository former potential locality Čihadlo summarizes the existing geological knowledge at one of the nine sites considered for the planned deep repository of high-level radioactive waste in the Czech Republic.
The area of interest is characterized by simple geological structure that includes two lithotectonic units. Metamorphic rocks are of Prevariscan protolith, which was nevertheless significantly reworked during variscan orogeny between c. 340 – 320 Ma. Magmatic rocks are of Variscan age cca. 340-320 Ma.
The updated 3D structural geological model was created in the MOVE software, primarily for a user-friendly access to the geological interpretations of an extensive geophysical and geological research conducted at this site in the recent years.
