1. Nuclear Journal of Canada, 1987 Vol 1 No. 3, by W.T. Hancox, CNS, 1987-09-01. Doc type: Paper.
   Summary: This paper describes the Canadian concept for safe, permanent disposal of nuclear fuel waste deep in plutonic rock of the Canadian Shield. The ability of the disposal concept to isolate the wastes is then discussed in the light of laboratory and field research results. The methodlogy developed to characterize the hydrogeology of a plutonic rock mass is outlined and results obtained from its application to a field site are described. Also highlighted are the Canadian field research areas and the Underground Research Laboratory.
