The Callovo-Oxfordian sedimentary layer is characterized by a dominant clay fraction rich in carbonates, quartz, minor feldspars and accessory minerals. On average, the COx claystone contains 25-55% clay minerals, 20-38% carbonates, 20-30% quartz, 1% feldspar and small amounts of other inclusions (Andra 2005 ).

The purpose of the present study is to analyse how variations in mineral composition, within the C2c unit, might affect the transfer properties of the rocks, especially for rock samples with low clay mineral contents (from a few % to 20%). All samples were selected within the same 3 metre thick layer.

A Callovo-Oxfordian shale from Meuse/Haute-Marne shows a relatively weak alignment of clay minerals and a random distribution for calcite. Opalinus shales from Benken and Mont Terri show strong alignment of illite-smectite, kaolinite, chlorite, and calcite.

As many claystones, the Callovo-Oxfordian claystone is sensitive to variations in air and water content. In fact, drilling/cutting/shaping processes necessary for samples preparation prior to testing provoke always a limited desaturation of the sample. The resaturation (like the desaturation) generates a gradient of water content inside the sample.

We apply a range of fluid influx patterns and subduction parameters to better understand the variation in fluid migration behavior. While fluid migration is modeled throughout the creeping region, the most relevant and critical result of this study comes from the region near the base of the mantle wedge, where the spatial variations of both ...

The Callovo-Oxfordian (COx) claystone has been currently considered as a possible host rock in deep geological disposal of high-level radioactive waste by the French Radioactive Waste Management Agency (ANDRA) in France, due to its favorable low permeability, low diffusion coefficient and high retention capacity for radionuclides (ANDRA 2005 ).

Interunit variability among densitometers is due to different factors, including different calibration procedures and algorithms and variability in photon source energies and/or intensities. Other factors, such as the choice of scan parameters or the analysis procedures, can also introduce variability.

The results indicate that simple linear regressions using only elastic wave velocities (a) accounted for more than 81% of the vertical variability of the clay content in the COx formation (i.e., coefficient regression R-2 values greater than 81%) and (b) enable the estimation of clay content with the same accuracy as the spectral GR approach.

Abstract The concept of effective stress is one of the basic tenets of rock mechanics where the stress acting on a rock can be viewed as the total stress minus the pore water pressure. In many materials, including clay-rich rocks, this relationship has been seen to be imperfect and a coefficient (χ) is added to account for the mechanical properties of the clay matrix. Recent experimental ...

The Callovo-Oxfordian (COx) claystone is considered as a potential host rock for high-level radioactive waste disposal at great depth in France. Given the exothermic nature of radioactive wastes, a temperature elevation planned to be smaller than 100 °C will affect the host rock around the disposal cells.

The COx claystone is a sedimentary rock deposited 155 millions years ago on top of a layer of Dogger limestone that was afterwards covered by an Oxfordian limestone layer. The thickness of the COx layer is about 150 m. The COx claystone is composed of a clay matrix containing some detritic grains of quartz and calcite.
