AbstractDeep geological repositories are the international consensus solution for safely isolating high-level nuclear waste from the biosphere. In Germany, among others Opalinus Clay is under consideration to serve as stable host rock environment. Although physical and chemical characteristics of clays suppress microbial growth, Opalinus Clay harbors diverse microbial communities that can be relevant for the safety of a repository.

Abstract. In the past years X-ray computed tomography (CT) has became more and more common for geoscientific applications and is used from the µm-scale (e.g. for investigations of microfossils or pore-scale structures) up to the dm-scale (full drill cores or soil columns). In this paper we present results from CT imaging and mineralogical investigations of an Opalinus Clay core on different scales and different regions of interest, emphasizing especially the 3-D evaluation and distribution of cracks and their impact on mechanical testing of such material.

CO2 geosequestration is an important contributor to United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 13, i.e., Climate Action, which states a global Net-Zero CO2 emissions by 2050.

A detailed understanding of the relationship between the pressure gradient across the caprock and local CO2 concentration is of utmost importance for assessing the potential of CO2 geosequestration.

The model was implemented into the equations of pseudostatic equilibrium to simulate the mechanical response of Opalinus clay during conventional triaxial tests (using cylindrical samples) and true triaxial tests (using cubic samples).
