Short description (German)

The OECD/NEA IGSC Group on Measurements and Physical Understanding of Groundwater flow Through Argillaceous Media ("Clay Club") decided to take actions for the completion of a synthesis report on the self-healing potential of clays and argillaceous rocks in radioactive waste repositories. The final report is expected to include and summarize the state-of-the-art knowledge and current research results on argillaceous rocks and their use as host rock for radioactive waste repositories.
