CENF geological survey findings • Completed borings up till 30 April 2013: C11-C14 (near detector area) Stratigraphy C11 and C12 • 0.2m-1.2m topsoil and backfill • 1.2m to 8.0m Wurmian Moraine (clays, silts) • Consolidated • Intra-moraine units (marly, sandy, gravely), maximum thickness of 2.2m • Partially saturated → excavation in wet conditions • Between 6.0m and 13.0m gravels • Compacted • Aquifer → pumping tests will be carried out to determine the properties of the aquifer • From13.0m up to 20m Rissien Moraine Stratigraphy C13 • Entire borehole consists of Moraine, except for an intra-moraine marly and gravely unit at 5.0 – 7.2m depth • Marly unit partially saturated → excavation in wet conditions • Aquifer in gravels Stratigraphy C14 • Entire borehole consists of Moraine, except for an intra-moraine marly and gravely unit at 5.0 – 7.2m depth • Partially saturated → excavation in wet conditions • No well defined aquifer, but some water inflow has been noted Initial conclusions • Geology is very heterogeneous • Groundwater levels are variable
