CORE DRILLING OF DEEP DRILLHOLE OL-KR56 AT OLKILUOTO IN EURAJOKI 2011 - 2012 ABSTRACT As a part of the confirming site investigations at Olkiluoto, Suomen Malmi Oy (Smoy) core drilled a 1201.65 m deep drillhole with a diameter of 75.7 mm at Olkiluoto in October 2011 – January 2012. The identification number of the drillhole is OL-KR56. A set of monitoring measurements and samplings from the drilling and returning water was carried out during the drilling. Both the volume and the electric conductivity of the returning and drilling water were recorded. The drill rig was computer controlled and the computer recorded drilling parameters during drilling. The objective of the measurements was to obtain more information about bedrock and groundwater properties. Sodium fluorescein was used as a label agent in the drilling water. The total volume of the used drilling, washing and flushing water was 1628 m3. The measured volume of the returning water in the drillhole was 1142 m3. The deviation of the drillhole was measured with the deviation measuring instruments Reflex EMS and Reflex Gyro. The main rock types are veined and diatexitic gneisses, pegmatitic granite and mica gneiss. The average fracture frequency is 2.4 pcs/m and the average RQD value is 96.2 %. Fifty fractured zones were penetrated by the drillhole. Uniaxial compressive strength, Young’s Modulus and Poisson’s ratio were measured from the core samples. The average uniaxial compressive strength was 120.0 MPa, the average Young’s Modulus was 38.3 GPa and the average Poisson’s ratio was 0.22.

1 INTRODUCTION

1.1 Background

Posiva Oy submitted an application to the Finnish Government in May 1999 for the Decision in Principle to choose Olkiluoto in the municipality of Eurajoki as the site for the final disposal facility for spent nuclear fuel. The Government made a positive decision at the end of 2000. The Finnish Parliament ratified the decision in May 2001. The policy decision made it possible to concentrate the research activities at Olkiluoto in Eurajoki. Construction of an underground rock characterisation facility (called “ONKALO”) is one part of the research. Construction of the access tunnel was started in autumn 2004. Posiva Oy contracted (order number 9449-11) Suomen Malmi Oy (Smoy) to drill investigation drillholes in the area. In October 2011 – January 2012, drillhole OL-KR56 (1201.65 m) was core drilled. The aim of the new drillhole was to provide additional information on the quality of bedrock. The new drillhole OL-KR56 is located in the eastern central part of the Olkiluoto Island (Figure 1) and on the same site as drillholes OL-KR57 and OL-KR57B. The initial azimuth of the drillhole is 296.0 and the initial dip is -85.0 from the horizontal. The diameter of the drillhole is 75.7 mm. Summary of the technical details of the drillhole is presented in Appendix 1.

1.2 Scope of the work

The aim of the work was to drill an about 1200 metre long drillhole to document the geological conditions (continuity of rock units, fractured zones and rock quality) in the area. The 39.89 metres deep precollar for the drillhole OL-KR56 was drilled with a down-the-hole (DTH) percussion drill. In order to get a core sample also from the upper part of the bedrock, a common surface hole with OL-KR57 was drilled near the main drillholes. This drillhole OL-KR57B is 45.01 metres deep. To maximise the recovery of an undisturbed and continuous core, triple tube coring technique was used. In addition to the drilling, the work included core logging, rock mechanical field-testing of the core, drilling fluid monitoring, washing and flushing of the drillhole, drillhole deviation surveys and reporting. This report documents the work and sampling carried out during the drilling of the hole.

2 DRILLING WORK AND TECHNICAL DETAILS OF THE DRILLHOLE

2.1 Construction of the upper part of the drillhole

The percussion drilling of the drillhole OL-KR56 (the wider upper part of the drillhole, pre-collar) was done on the 11th of July in 2011 by Urjalan Porakaivo Oy. The work started with drilling of a 194/184 mm casing through the overburden into the bedrock. The casing was drilled into the depth of 6.00 metres. The estimated thickness of overburden along the drillhole was two metres. The drillhole was continued from 6.00 metres with a 165 mm DTH-hammer to the depth of 39.89 metres. This percussion-drilled section of the drillhole was cased with an acid-resistant stainless steel (Aisi 316) tube ( 140/134 mm, length 40.47 m), which was cemented into the bedrock. Distance along the 140/134 mm casing from the top of the casing to the ground level is 0.58 m. Finally, the 194/184 mm casing was cut to the ground level. Inside the lower end of the 140/134 mm casing, there is a 60 mm long cone that helps inserting instruments into the drillhole. Below the cone there is a 50 mm section of 84/77 mm tube with 45 mm of right hand thread, starting at the depth of 39.63 metres. The thread is used to attach an additional casing ( 84/77 mm) during the drilling. Below the cone and threaded part, and inside the 140/134 mm casing, there is a 160 mm long section of a 89/78 mm tube. The cone and the attached tube are made of acid-resistant stainless steel. The top of the casing is closed with a lockable cap. The construction of the upper part of the drillhole and a detailed drawing of the cone-tube-assembly are shown in Appendix 2.

2.2 Diamond core drilling

The diamond drill rig U6 was set up at the drilling site on the 5th of October in 2011, and drilling of the OL-KR56 commenced on the 7th. The drill rig was changed to U8 at the drilling depth of 176.17 metres. On the 4th of January in 2012, drilling depth of 1201.65 metres was reached. The realized time schedule of the work is shown in Figure 2.

Figure 2. Time schedule for drilling of the drillhole OL-KR56. The drillhole was core drilled with a computer controlled hydraulic U6 and U8 drill rigs. The rigs are fully hydraulic, microprocessor-controlled units with an automated process control. The manual interface to the control system is a touch screen panel. The control unit of the rig optimizes the drilling process in real time according to drilling conditions. The driller sets the upper and lower values for the volume of flushing water, feeding force and rotation torque. The driller also sets values for the penetration speed and rotation speed. Once these values have been set, the rig will carry out the drilling within the pre-set values by measuring the parameters several times a second. If the rig fails to keep up the chosen penetration speed within the pre-set parameter values, the drilling will be stopped automatically. The feeding force is the force working on the bit and is generated by the rig feed and the weight of the drill string. The feeding force is adjusted by the system pressure and bit force to achieve the optimal penetration speed. The drilling was done with wire-line technique. This means that after every drilling run, the core barrel is retrieved with a steel cable, and the drilling tubes have to be lifted up only for bit change. NQ3 -triple tube core barrel and NQ -drill rods were used. The drillhole diameter with the NQ3 -triple tube core barrel is 75.7 mm and the nominal drill core sample diameter is 50.2 mm. The sample quality is better when drilling with triple tube core barrel than with conventional double tube core barrel. The cutting area of the diamond bit of the triple tube core barrel is larger than that of the double tube core barrel. In the triple tube core barrel, the third, innermost tube is of split type. The innermost split tube containing the sample is removed from the core barrel with the aid of a piston working on water pressure. In this way the sample can be removed from the core barrel as undisturbed as possible. This advantage is especially noticeable when drilling fractured rocks. In addition, soft fracture fillings will be preserved much better. Furthermore, there are less drill cuttings on the core surface, in the breaks and on the fracture surfaces. Wear and tear of the drilling equipment was near the average level in the Olkiluoto area with this type of equipment. In this work, about 68 metres was drilled per one NQ3 bit

compared to a long-term average of about 78 m per NQ3, about 28 m per WL-76, about 29 m per T-76 and about 35 m per T-56 bits in Olkiluoto. The drilling was carried out as discontinuous shift work (mainly one 12 h shift per day, four to six days per week) and the drilling team in each shift consisted of a driller and an assistant. Geologist Vesa Toropainen was the project manager and Matti Alaverronen was the drilling supervisor. Geological logging was done by geologist Jarmo Kuusirati and compilation of the final report was done by geologist Vesa Toropainen. The drilling time (which does not include DTH-drilling, set up, cementing and cleaning, washing the hole, flushing and dismantling work) on the drillhole OL-KR56 was 1008 h, which gives the mean drilling efficiency of 1.15 metres per rig hour. The drill core samples were placed in wooden core boxes immediately after emptying the core barrel. Rock matrix pore water and gas samples were taken at drilling site (see Section 3.6). In all, 283 core boxes were used. Start and end depths of the core in each core box are presented in Appendix 3. Wooden blocks separating the different sample runs were placed to the core boxes to show the depth of each lift. The core drillings included 426 sample runs. The depths of the lifts are presented in Appendix 4.

2.3 Drilling water and the use of label agent

Drilling water for the drillhole was taken from the freshwater pipeline of the accommodation village through a pipeline (length about 200 m). Before entering the mixing tanks (5 m³ fibreglass tanks), the water was filtered through a 500 μm filter. All drilling water was marked with the label agent sodium fluorescein. The sodium fluorescein solution was delivered by Posiva. At the TVO Olkiluoto laboratory, the sodium fluorescein was dissolved in water in 5 litre bottles. The sodium fluorescein is an organic powdery pigment, which is dispersed by UV radiation. Therefore, the label agent mixing bottles were covered. At the drilling site, dose of 50 ml of solution was taken with syringe and mixed for each five cubic metres of water (the planned concentration is 250 μg/l). The pre-mixed solution was slowly added into the mixing tank at the beginning of pumping. Turbulence caused by pumping water into the tank ensured proper mixing of the label agent.

2.4 Stabilization of the drillhole by cementing

At the drilling depth of ~170 metres a major fractured zone was penetrated by drilling. It caused considerable core loss in the sample and caused the drillhole walls to leak small rock fragments to the drillhole, which caused problems to drilling. First the leak was tried to clean from fragments by washing and brushing the walls with water jet and brush and by retrieving loose material from the drillhole bottom. As this method was unsuccessful to stabilize the drillhole, the only way to continue the drilling was stabilization by cementing. The reason why cementing in not the first choice for stabilization is that it seals the cemented drillhole section from hydrological measurements and impacts also on the groundwater sampling. Sulphate resistant cement, submitted by Posiva Oy, was used in the stabilizing work, with a mixing ratio of one sack (25 kg) of cement and 11.5 litres of water. The drillhole depth before the first cementing was 175.57 metres. The first cementing was done on the 18th and 19th of October 2011 in two occasions. Cement was lowered to the bottom of the drillhole via the drill strings in two sets, 40 litres (two sacks) of cement in each of them. On the first set the bottom of the drill string was at the depth of 172 metres, and for the second set it was raised by one metre. The cement was left to harden until the 24th of October, when it was drilled through. Also 0.60 metres of rock was drilled, deepening the drillhole to depth of 176.17 metres. The drillhole did not stabilize and further cementing was needed. The drillhole was cemented for the second time on the 25th of October with additional 40 litres of cement with the drill string bottom at the depth of 175.80 metres. During the hardening time, the drill rig was changed from U6 to U8. The cement (at the depth of 173.19 - 176.17 m) was drilled on the 1st of November with 0.32 metres of rock, advancing the drillhole depth to 176.49 metres. After this the drillhole became stable and normal drilling continued.

2.5 Washing and flush pumping of the drillhole

Before the final flushing of the drillhole, the drillhole walls were washed with labelled water and a steel brush to drop all loose material from the hole walls to the bottom of the drillhole. Fractured zones determined in the geological logging were washed with special care. In addition, water jets were directed against the wall of the hole through inclined holes in the brush frame. The water was pumped through the drill rods.

Page 13: Core Drilling of Deep Drillhole OL-KR56 at Olkiluoto in

After the walls of the drillhole OL-KR56 were washed, the drillhole was cleaned by pumping water from the bottom of the drillhole through N-type drilling tubes (outside

73 mm) with a submersible pump. In this procedure, an adapter with a rubber sealing was lowered on the cone installed at the bottom of the casing ( 140/134 mm). The adapter was lowered and lifted by a drill string, screwed to the cone assembly. Another drill string of N-type tubes, which nearly reached the bottom of the hole, was attached to the adapter. The weight of the drill string pressed the adapter and the cone tightly together with no water leakage between them. A submersible pump was then lowered to the depth of about 40 m inside the 140/134 mm casing. Consequently, the flushing water circulated via the bottom of the drillhole. The flush pumping of OL-KR56 was carried out in one phase between 03:00 pm on the 13th of January and 04:55 pm on the 16th of January in 2012. During the flush pumping, 37.7 m3 of water was pumped with an average rate of 509 l/h from the drillhole. After the pumping, the time-rate of the groundwater level recovery was observed (Appendix 5).

2.6 Deviation and location surveys

To trace the drillhole accurately, the dip and azimuth of the drillhole OL-KR56 were measured with Reflex Gyro and Reflex EMS downhole deviation survey tools. The Gyro was lowered into the drillhole inside drill rods with a wireline cable. The EMS downhole deviation survey tool was lowered with a cable directly into the drillhole. The surveys were tied to geodetic fix points (measured by Prismarit Oy), which were in the tops of the casings. A declination correction of +6.6 degrees, obtained from the basic map of the Olkiluoto area (National Land Survey of Finland, Basic Map 1132 06 + 09), was used in the EMS calculations. The top of the stainless steel casing tube ( 140/134 mm) at OL-KR56 was cut off for the drilling rig to fit over the drilling place. After the drilling, the removed part of the casing tube (length ~ 30 cm) was welded back. The Gyro survey was done before, and the EMS survey after the section of casing tube was welded back. The location was measured after welding back the removed section of the casing tube. Surveyed coordinates of the ground level and the top of the casing is presented in Table 1. Drilling, core sample and measurement depths in the drillhole were measured from the ground level (the top end of the 194/184 mm casing). For depth measurements during

Page 14: Core Drilling of Deep Drillhole OL-KR56 at Olkiluoto in

10

drilling positive values are used below the ground level and negative values above ground level.

2.6.1 Deviation survey tools

Reflex Gyro measures dip and tool roll with 3-component accelerometers. The horizontal direction is measured using gyroscopes. The gyroscopes measure angular rate (speed of rotation) in three perpendicular directions as a function of time. The direction of the device at depth is acquired by integrating angular rate with respect to time. Gyro also measures azimuth with magnetometers. Every sensor is fitted with its own temperature sensor, which is used for temperature compensation. According to the manufacturer, the accuracy of the dip is ±0.2 degrees. The accuracy of the gyroscopically measured direction varies by the hole length. According to the manufacturer, the accuracy of the direction is ±0.5 degrees for an 800 metres long hole, when measured in 40 minutes. Centralizers are not needed. Normal station spacing is 5 metres. The EMS survey tool measures the drillhole dip with an electronic accelerometer and the azimuth relative to the magnetic north with a three-component fluxgate magnetometer. According to the manufacturer, the accuracy of the azimuth is ± 0.5 degrees and the accuracy of the dip is ± 0.2 degrees, provided there are no magnetic anomalies. No significant magnetic anomalies were detected during the measurements. The azimuth was measured to magnetic north, but declination correction was made to the results; the results are, therefore, to geographic north.

2.6.2 Deviation and location survey results

The initial dip of the drillhole OL-KR56 is -85 degrees (measured March 1st 2012 by Prismarit Oy). The dip of the first station of the Gyro survey was taken as initial dip used in the Gyro survey calculations (Appendices 6 and 7). In this case, it is not exactly the same as the initial dip of the drillhole, i.e. the dip of the casing measured by Prismarit Oy. In the EMS survey, the initial dip was measured by EMS sensors at the first station. The initial azimuth of the drillhole OL-KR56 is 296 degrees (measured March 1st 2012 by Prismarit Oy). The initial azimuth measured by Prismarit Oy was used as azimuth in the Gyro calculations. The azimuth difference between the upper end of the hole (location survey) and the first reliable measurement of the EMS survey was evened by stepped

Page 15: Core Drilling of Deep Drillhole OL-KR56 at Olkiluoto in

11

interpolated correction calculations over the length (~40 m) of the casing tube (Appendices 8 and 9). The used step was 0.53 degrees. The surveyed end coordinates of the drillhole OL-KR56, based on the EMS and Gyro surveys are shown in Table 1. In the drillhole, the Gyro and EMS surveys were carried out to the depth of 1185 metres. In the Table 1 the Gyro and EMS surveys are extrapolated to the drillhole end depth of 1201.65 metres for comparison. According to the Gyro results, the horizontal deviation of the drillhole OL-KR56 at the depth of 1201.65 metres is 160.5 metres to the east and 51.4 metres to the north and the vertical deviation 29.1 metres upwards. (Appendices 6 and 7). According to the EMS results, the horizontal deviation of the drillhole at the depth of 1201.65 metres is 157.4 metres to the east and 57.8 metres to the north and the vertical deviation 29.6 metres upwards (Appendices 8 and 9). The horizontal and vertical deviations are calculated from the surveyed end coordinates of the drillhole and the planned drillhole coordinates at drillhole depth of 1201.65 metres in the initial direction and dip of the drillhole. The EMS and Gyro survey results show practically same deviation and can both be considered reliable. Table 1. Coordinates of drillhole OL-KR56, Gyro and EMS surveys are extrapolated at 1185 - 1201.65 m.

3 MONITORING MEASUREMENTS AND SAMPLES

Several drilling parameters were monitored and water samples were taken during the drilling. The groundwater level in the drillhole was measured during drilling (Appendix 5), and drill cuttings were collected and measured. The aim was to get additional information on rock quality and to predict possible drilling problems.

3.1 Quantities and label agent concentration of drilling and returning water

To find out how much drilling water was leaking into the bedrock, volumes of ingoing and returning water were monitored. The flow meter for ingoing drilling water was connected to the waterline coming to the water pump of the drill rig and the volume of returning water was measured from the overflow of the sedimentation tank. During the drilling of OL-KR56, 1548.5 m³ of water was used. After the drilling was finished, the drillhole was washed and flushed with 79.8 m³ of water. During the drilling, washing and flushing, 1104.7 m³ of returning water was measured. This is about 71.3 % of the water volume used. Some water passed the flow meter (and could not be measured) during air-lift pumping and lifting of drill rods. Also, there is a hydrological connection between drillholes OL-KR56 and OL-KR57, which may be the cause for small returning water ratio, especially at drillhole depth of ~170 metres where the drillhole was stabilized by cementing (Figure 3). The cumulative consumption of the drilling water and the amount of measured returning water are shown in Figure 3. All drilling water batches made in the mixing tanks were sampled (Appendix 10). The returning water was sampled once a day, provided water was flowing out of the drillhole (Appendix 11).

Figure 3. Cumulative consumption of drilling water and amount of returning water during the drilling of the drillhole OL-KR56. Due to the sensitivity of the sodium fluorescein label agent to UV-light, the sample bottles were wrapped in aluminium foil immediately after sampling. The water samples were stored in a refrigerator until they were sent to the laboratory (TVO) at Olkiluoto for analysis. The concentration of the label agent is used to estimate the representativeness of the groundwater samples taken from the drillhole. The drilling water samples, label agent batches and the respective sodium fluorescein concentrations are listed in Appendix 10. In total, 331 samples were taken from the used 331 tanks of OL-KR56 drilling water. The achieved concentrations varied mainly (314 samples of 331) within the allowed limits of 250 ± 30 g/l. The average concentration was 245 g/l, the lowest value was 123 g/l and the highest value 389 g/l. The reasons for the few abnormally high and low concentrations were not found. The returning water samples were collected once a day (at the beginning of the morning shift) during continuous drilling work. In total 54 samples were taken during the drilling of OL-KR56 (Appendix 11). High sodium fluorescein concentration in the returning water indicates that the water is mainly drilling water (values over 125 g/l means that returning water contains, in principle, more drilling water than groundwater). The concentration of the label agent in the returning water of OL-KR56 varied from 146 to 223 g/l with an average of 221 g/l.

3.2 Electric conductivity of drilling and returning water

During the drilling, the electric conductivity of the drilling and returning water was monitored. The electric conductivity measurements were done with a WTW conductivity meter Cond 315i with TetraCon 325 conductivity cell. The conductivity meter gives the results as mS/m at +25°C. The conductivity meter was checked at least once in two weeks by Posiva. The electric conductivity of each drilling water batch was measured after mixing the label agent. The electric conductivity of drilling and washing water varied between 19.5 and 31.3 mS/m. The last washing water batch (31.3 mS/m) is anomalously high, and most of the conductivities are very near to 20 mS/m (Appendix 10).

Figure 4. Electric conductivity of returning water from drillhole OL-KR56 (39.89 – 1201.65 m). The returning water samples (2 – 3 dl) (Appendices 11 and 12) were collected for electric conductivity measurements, when water was flowing from the drillhole. The returning water contains drill cuttings, the composition of which depends on the drilled rock type. If the drill cuttings were affecting the conductivity, the water samples were let to settle and, if needed, filtered through a 45 μm filter to remove the remaining drill cuttings. In total, 426 measurements of electric conductivity from the returning water were made during the drilling of OL-KR56. The electric conductivity of the returning water in OL-KR56 varied from 18.7 to 113.6 mS/m, with most values between 21 and 28 mS/m (Figure 4, Appendix 12). The conductivity of the returning water is affected by the

Page 20: Core Drilling of Deep Drillhole OL-KR56 at Olkiluoto in

16

content and salinity of the groundwater. It was noticed that many of the peak values were measured on the first or second drilling run after lowering the drilling rod after changing the drilling bit. This is because when lifting the drill rod from the hole, it removes considerable amount of water from the drillhole, which then is replaced by salty water from the fractures. The drilling water of the next run is not able to completely flush the salty water from the hole.

3.3 MWD -measurements

Drilling parameters were saved on the memory card of the rig computer. When the hole was completed, the recorded data of MWD (Measurement While Drilling) measurements was transferred to a separate computer. The rig records pressure and volume of the flushing water, rotation speed, penetration speed, hydraulic system pressure and weight on the bit. The drilling parameters recorded from OL-KR56 are presented in Figure 5. Most of the peak values are narrow and can probably be caused by technical matters or fractures. The logging has started from the drilling depth of 131 metres, the reason for this is probably drilling rig computer problem which may have erased the log. The anomaly between the drilling depths of 620 and 715 metres in parameters is probably caused by logging while reaming. Reaming happens when drill string reamers are changed, and their diameter exceeds the diameter of the drillhole. When the drill string is then lowered, the force may be strong enough to start the computer to log false data. The system pressure varied mostly from 15 to 20 MPa and had an increasing trend towards the end of the drillhole. The average system pressure was 17 MPa. The variation of bit force is caused partly by the variation of hardness in the Olkiluoto

bedrock. During the drilling of the hole, the bit force was mainly between 9 and 16 kN.

The average bit force was 13 kN.

Penetration speed was kept as constant as possible by the automatic process control.

Generally, the penetration speed was about 13 to 15 cm per minute, but varied slightly

above and below the abovementioned values in some short intervals, and decreased

slightly during the advance of the drillhole. In the fractured zone at the drillhole depth of

~170 metres the penetration speed increased significantly. Additionally, some short

Page 21: Core Drilling of Deep Drillhole OL-KR56 at Olkiluoto in

17

peaks occurred, which were caused by the computer logging data while redrilling short

sections of core left in drillhole at the starts of the lifts.

During the drilling, the rotation speed of rods varied generally between 1020 and

1150 rpm. There was a technical problem in the rotation speed measuring device, and data

is missing for parts of the drillhole.

The rig also records the behaviour of flushing water. According to the drilling situation,

the driller pre-sets the upper and the lower limits (typically from 0.5 to 5 MPa) for the

water pressure, which will not be exceeded or fallen below. Water flow was quite

constant except for some zones, where significant variations in the flow values were

observed, caused probably by the fractures. Also, the driller sometimes decreased the

water flow during the drilling to sharpen the bit. The average water flow was 44 litres per

minute.

The flushing water pressure had an increasing tendency towards the end of the drillhole.

During the drilling, the water pressure varied between 1.0 and 6.0 MPa. Most of peak

values are narrow and are probably caused by technical matters or fractures. One

technical factor causing variation could be bit wear. The average flushing water pressure

was 3.0 MPa.

3.4 Groundwater level in the drillhole

The groundwater level was measured from the ground surface along the drillhole. During the drilling of OL-KR56, the groundwater level varied between 3.7 and -0.43 metres, but mainly was between 0.5 and 2 metres depths (Appendix 5). The result partly depends on the stabilising time before measurements.

3.5 Drill cuttings

Drill cuttings were collected in a sedimentation tank and the volume of the cuttings was measured. From the drillhole OL-KR56, about 2900 litres of drill cuttings were collected. With the used bit size (75.7/50.2 mm), 2.52 litres of rock per metre was ground to drill cuttings. Consequently, the total volume of drill cuttings generated in OL-KR56 would be about 2930 litres. If the expansion factor of 1.7 for wet cutting is assumed, the yield would be about 4980 litres. This probably means that the water content of the drill cuttings was lower than the used expansion factor, or some drill cuttings escaped the sedimentation tank. It is also possible, that due to hydraulic connection and short distance between the drillholes OL-KR56 and OL-KR57, some of the drill cuttings leaked to the previously drilled OL-KR57 drillhole.

3.6 Matrix pore water samples

During the drilling of OL-KR56, 19 drill core samples were taken by Posiva geologists for matrix pore water (MPW) and gas analysis (noble gases - NG and hydrocarbons - HC). These samples were taken at the drilling site, immediately after the core was lifted from the hole. Samples were selected from unfractured core sections representing local lithology of sample depth. Missing core is replaced with wooden block indicating the sample identification code. The samples are listed in Appendix 13.

4 GEOLOGICAL LOGGING

4.1 General

The handling of the core was based on the POSIVA work instructions POS-001427 ”Core handling procedure with triple tube coring” (in Finnish). Drill core samples were placed into about one-metre long wooden core boxes immediately after emptying the core barrel. The core boxes were covered with damp-proofing quality aluminium paper, with the aluminium surface against the core. The wooden blocks separating the different sample runs were also covered with aluminium paper. The drill core was handled carefully during and after the drilling. The core was placed in the boxes avoiding any unnecessary breakage. Broken and clay rich parts of the core were wrapped in aluminium paper to avoid breaking them during storage and logging. If loose rock fragments from the drillhole walls were encountered during the logging, they were placed after the block marking the end of the previous sample run. Therefore, at the beginning of a sample run, there might be rock fragments not belonging to the sample run itself. Geologist Jarmo Kuusirati logged the core in Posiva’s core logging facility at ONKALO site. The core logging of OL-KR56 followed the normal Posiva logging procedure, which has been used e.g. in pilot hole drilling programmes at Olkiluoto. The following parameters were logged: lithology, foliation, fracture parameters, fractured zones, weathering, core loss, artificial breaks, fracture frequency, RQD, rock quality (Q’) and core discing. In addition, core orientation, the lifts and the core box numbers were documented. All core boxes (Appendix 3) were colour photographed, both dry and wet. The core photographs (wet) are presented at the end of the report. The lift depths (Appendix 4) are given as they were marked on the wooden spacing blocks separating different sample runs in the core boxes. If the length of the core in the sample run indicated that sampling depth was different from the depth measured during drilling, the true sample depth was corrected on the spacing block. Therefore, the sample run depth equals the sample depth. The drilling depth might be deeper than the sampling depth, if the core lifter slips and part of the core is left in the drillhole and is retrieved by the next lift. The measured true sample depths were marked to the core sample with short

Page 26: Core Drilling of Deep Drillhole OL-KR56 at Olkiluoto in

22

red lines perpendicular to the core direction in one metre interval. The depth values were marked to the upper dividing wall of the core box row.

4.2 Core orientation

Core orientation was carried out by using Ezy-Mark™ system. When utilized, the Ezy-Mark tool was locked into the core lifter case of the inner tube and set into the core barrel. Before drilling starts, the core barrel with the marking tool is lowered against the hole bottom. The pencil of the orientation head makes a mark on the hole bottom and the pins of the tool are pressed to record the profile of the hole bottom. When the tool reaches the bottom, the orientation balls of the tool are locked in their lowest position, indicating the bottom of the hole direction. During the drilling, the marking tool slides above the drilled core inside the core barrel. After the drilling is finished, the inner tube with the sample and the tool is pulled up from the hole by the wire line cable. Core orientation can be done when the tool is twisted into Ezy-Mark Orientation Cradle (Figure 6) so that the orientation balls can be seen from the slot of the cradle. When the core sample is set into the cradle and the orientation head is aligned respectively with the shape of the core face and pencil mark, orientation bottom line can be drawn on the outer surface of the core using the edge of the cradle (Figure 6). If a pencil mark does not exist, the core can still be orientated by using only the pins of the orientation head. The block marking “EM” is used with this method. The Ori-Block (Figure 7) is a separable pen and pin block of Ezy-Mark. The Ori-Block is used only once and then placed to the core box above the oriented lift. This allows the orientation marks to be audited afterwards (Figure 7).

Figure 7. The Ori-Block™ separable orientation block (Photos 2iC Australia Pty Ltd). The starting depths of the oriented lifts and the start and end depths and lengths of the oriented parts of the sample were recorded (Appendix 14). If the mark was rejected (not found, poor mark), a comment was written into the remarks column of the list. In the Appendix 14, “EM OB” is written in the remarks when the Ori-Block was used and “EM” when Ezy-Mark was used. The aim was to orientate as much of the core as possible in order to measure geological features. During the drilling of OL-KR56, a total of 196 orientations with Ori-Block™ were made, 22 of them were rejected because there was no mark, or there was too much deviation from other marks. Orientation lines were drawn on the basis of several marks, if possible. Deviation of mark from the drawn line measured in degrees was recorded. In OL-KR56 96.2 % (1117.63 m) of the drill core was orientated. The orientation bottom line drawn to the drill core sample on the basis of the orientation marks acted as a ground for direction measurements of fractures and other linear and planar features in the core. From the oriented drill core sections, core alpha and beta angles of every measurable fracture and chosen foliation measurement points were determined (Figure 8). Each alpha and beta value was recalculated to the real dip and dip directions using the drillhole orientation at the start of the drillhole, measured by Prismarit Oy.

4.3 Lithology

The rocks of Olkiluoto fall into four main groups: 1) gneisses, 2) migmatitic gneisses, 3) TGG-gneisses (TGG = tonalite-granodiorite-granite) and 4) pegmatitic granites (Kärki & Paulamäki 2006). In addition, narrow diabase dykes occur sporadically. The gneisses include homogeneous mica-bearing quartz gneisses, banded mica gneisses and hornblende or pyroxene-bearing mafic gneisses. The migmatitic gneisses, which typically contain 20 – 40 % leucosome, can be divided into three subgroups in terms of their migmatite structures: veined gneisses, stromatic gneisses and diatexitic gneisses. The leucosomes of the veined gneisses show vein-like, more or less elongated traces with some features similar to augen structures. Planar leucosome layers characterize the stromatic gneisses, whereas the migmatite structure of the diatexitic gneisses is asymmetric and irregular.

Page 29: Core Drilling of Deep Drillhole OL-KR56 at Olkiluoto in

25

The lithological classification used in the mapping follows the classification by Mattila (2006). In this classification, the migmatitic metamorphic gneisses are divided into veined gneisses (VGN), stromatic gneisses (SGN) and diatexitic gneisses (DGN). The percentage of the leucosome proportion in gneisses is reported. The non-migmatitic metamorphic gneisses are separated into mica gneisses (MGN), mafic gneisses (MFGN), quartz gneisses (QGN) and tonalitic-granodioritic-granitic gneisses (TGG). The metamorphic rocks form a compositional series that can be separated by rock texture and the proportion of neosome. Igneous rock names used in the classification are coarse-grained pegmatitic granite (PGR), K-feldspar porphyry (KFP) and diabase (DB). The TGG gneisses are medium-grained, relatively homogeneous rocks that can show a blastomylonitic foliation, but they can also resemble plutonic, unfoliated rocks. The pegmatitic granites are leucocratic, very coarse-grained rocks, which may contain large garnet, tourmaline and cordierite crystals. Mica gneiss enclaves are typical within the larger pegmatitic bodies. Gneisses, which are weakly or not at all migmatitic, make ca. 9 % of the bedrock. The migmatitic gneisses comprise over 64 % of the volume of the Olkiluoto bedrock, with the veined gneisses accounting for 43 %, the stromatic gneisses for 0.4 % and the diatexitic gneisses for 21 %, based on drill core logging. Of the remaining lithologies, the TGG-gneisses constitute 8 % and the pegmatitic granites almost 20 % by volume (Kärki & Paulamäki 2006). The OL-KR56 drillcore consists mostly of veined gneiss (34.5 %), diatexitic gneiss (32.1 %), pegmatitic granite (13.8 %) and mica gneiss (13.0 %). In addition, short sections of TGG-gneisses, K-feldspar porphyry (KFP) and quartz gneiss (QGN) were encountered in the drillhole. In places, the migmatite structure of the gneisses varies considerably between non-migmatitic, veined and diatexitic. In these cases the given rock section is named according to prevailing rock type but in some cases also shorter than 1 metre thick lithological units (in drillcore intersection) are recorded for clearer descriptions. Stromatic gneiss cannot be accurately distinguished from veined gneiss in drill core sample scale. The rock types recorded from the cores are presented in Figures 9 and 10 and in Appendix 15. Of the migmatitic gneisses, the diatexitic gneiss (DGN) and veined gneiss (VGN) occupy 2/3 of the sample with nearly even proportions. The diatexitic gneiss is more abundant of the two migmatitic gneisses at the drillhole depths of less than ~725 metres, whereas the veined gneiss dominates in the deeper parts of the drillhole. The diatexitic gneiss (DGN) is mostly irregular by foliation, but locally can be weakly banded and usually contains 50

Page 30: Core Drilling of Deep Drillhole OL-KR56 at Olkiluoto in

26

– 80 % leucosome. In some cases the DGN is practically massive when leucosome content is very high with only spots and stripes mica rich material. The veined gneiss (VGN) is for the most part moderately banded, but in many places weakly banded (often folded) or irregular. Sometimes when leucosome content is low, the dominating foliation type is gneissic. Veined gneiss contains typically 30 – 50 % leucosome. The pegmatitic granite (PGR) is relatively rare in the drillhole OL-KR56, compared to other deep drillholes in Olkiluoto. PGR occurs mainly at the start of the drillhole between the drillhole depths of 40 and 75 metres, and between the drillhole depths of 330 and 790 metres. Short PGR sections occur also in other parts of the drillcore. The PGR is mainly composed of K-feldspar and quartz, with minor amounts of biotite, muscovite, apatite and cordierite. The amount of mica gneiss (MGN) in the drillhole is somewhat greater than typically in the deep drillholes of Olkiluoto. It usually occurs as short inclusions in migmatitic gneisses, but in this drillhole it also occurs as longer sections in the drillcore. The mica gneiss mainly occurs at the drillhole depth sections of 70 – 180 and 720 – 1030 metres. The TGG-gneiss is encountered mainly at the drillhole depth sections of 300 – 375 and 790 – 950 metres as one to nine metres long sections. It is usually medium to coarse grained with massive to weakly gneissic foliation. Locally it contains leucosome veins. When the proportion of leucosome was significant, the TGG containing migmatite has been logged as VGN. The migmatitic gneisses, mainly the VGN, contain local sections of mica gneiss (MGN) and quartz gneiss (QGN), which were logged as separate rock types only when the sections were wider than about one metre. The quartz gneiss occurs as three short (1 – 2 m) sections at the drillhole depths of 575.90 – 576.85, 677.25 – 678.90 and 1153.50 – 1154.95 metres. The KFP was found as one short (4.1 m) section between the drillhole depths of 202.50 and 206.60 metres. The KFPs have porphyric appearance, but sometimes also show irregular to moderately banded or gneissic foliation. In Olkiluoto, the KFP sections usually are located in the near vicinity of ductile to semi-brittle (or brittle) deformation with moderate to strong alteration, but in this case, the distance to the nearest major deformation zone is ~50 metres.

4.4 Foliation

The classification of the foliation type and intensity used in this study is based on the characterization procedure introduced by Milnes et al. (2006). The foliation type was estimated macroscopically and classified into five categories: MAS = massive GNE = gneissic BAN = banded SCH = schistose IRR = irregular The gneissic type (GNE) corresponds to a rock dominated by quartz and feldspars, with micas and amphiboles occurring only as minor constituents. The banded foliation type (BAN) consists of intercalated gneissic and schistose layers, which are either separated or discontinuous layers of micas or amphiboles. The schistose type (SCH) is dominated by micas or amphiboles, which have a strong orientation. Massive (MAS) corresponds to massive rock with no visible orientations and irregular (IRR) to folded or chaotic rock. The intensity of the foliation is based on visual estimation and classified into the following four categories: 0 = massive or irregular 1 = weakly foliated 2 = moderately foliated 3 = strongly foliated Measurements of foliation (Appendix 16) were carried out in variable intervals from the core sample, mainly one measurement per core box, if possible. A total of 119 measurements were made from the drillcore OL-KR56, giving an average interval of 9.7 metres.

Page 34: Core Drilling of Deep Drillhole OL-KR56 at Olkiluoto in

30

Figure 11. Measured foliation orientations of OL-KR56 on an equal area lower hemisphere projection. The total number of measurements is 119. The main foliation type of the veined gneiss is moderately or weakly banded, but in many occasions gneissic, with very small leucosome content. The diatexitic gneisses are mainly weakly banded or with irregular foliation. Moderately banded variety is present in places. Pegmatitic granite is massive. Sections of mica gneiss are mainly massive or weakly gneissic, but in some places moderately gneissic. The foliation of TGG ranges from massive to moderately gneissic. The KFP shows traces of banded foliation. The main foliation direction in the core samples OL-KR56 is towards south-southeast (166 /50 ), but there is some variation in the foliation direction as shown in Figure 11.

4.5 Fracturing

Fractures were numbered sequentially from the beginning to the end of the drillcore (Appendix 17). Fracture depths were measured to the centre line of the core and given with an accuracy of 0.01 metres. Each fracture was described individually with attributes including orientation, type, colour, fracture filling, surface shape and roughness. The abbreviations used to describe the fracture type are in accordance with the classification used by Suomen Malmi Oy (Niinimäki 2004) (Table 2). Fractures with a filling and an apparent colour were classified as filled, if the core was intact. The filled fractures with intact surfaces were described as closed or partly closed.

Page 35: Core Drilling of Deep Drillhole OL-KR56 at Olkiluoto in

31

In these cases, “closed” or “partly closed” has been written in the remarks column. The thickness of the filling was estimated with an accuracy of 0.1 mm. The identification of fracture fillings was qualitative and made visually in accordance with the fracture mineral database developed by Kivitieto Oy and Posiva Oy (Table 3). Abbreviations were used during the logging. Where the recognition of a mineral was not possible, the mineral was described with a common mineral group name, such as clay, sulphide etc. In addition to this, the morphology and alteration of fractures were also classified according to the Q-system (Grimstad & Barton 1993). The fracture morphology was described with the joint roughness number, Jr (Table 4) and the alteration with the joint alteration number, Ja (Table 5). The fracture shape and roughness of fracture surfaces were classified using a modification of Barton’s Q-classification (Barton et al. 1974) (Table 6). Table 2. The abbreviations used to describe fracture type (Niinimäki 2004).

Planar Rough Stepped Smooth

During the fracture logging, the surface colour was also registered. The colour is often caused by the dominating fracture filling mineral or minerals, e.g. chlorite (green) or kaolinite (white). Presence of minor filling minerals usually causes some variation in the colour of the fracture surface. These colour shades were described e.g. as dark or greenish. Tight fractures typically had only a slightly different shade from the host rock colour. In the fracture logging, 2780 fractures were recorded (Appendix 17). The fracture type and the frequencies of fracture surface qualities, morphologies, joint roughness and joint alteration numbers are shown as histograms in Figures 12…16. In the OL-KR56 drillcore, there are 1822 filled fractures (65.5 %), 632 filled slickensided fractures (22.7 %), 184 tight fractures (6.6 %), 95 open fractures (3.4 %) and 47 grain-filled fractures (1.7 %) (Figure 12). Most of the fractures are undulated in shape (Figure 13), have a rough profile (Figure 14) and high joint roughness number (Figure 15), indicating a high friction in the fracture surface. These fractures are usually filled or tight with low to low-moderate joint alteration numbers (0.75 – 3) (Figure 16). The high friction fractures are mostly located scattered throughout the core. The core sample OL-KR56 has unusually high number of closed fractures, which are given joint alteration number 0.75. This is at least partly due to MGN -rich lithology, which seems to preserve old and healed fractures during partial melting.

Figure 16. Joint alteration numbers in the core sample OL-KR56. In the OL-KR56, 24.4 % of the fractures are filled slickensided or grain-filled by type (Figure 12), and usually have slickensided or smooth surfaces (Figure 14) with moderate to high (4 to 12) joint alteration numbers (Figure 16), together indicating low friction. The low friction fractures are mainly undulating or planar in their shape (Figure 13). They are commonly present as groups, classified as fractured zones, or concentrated near to fractured zones, but they are also found scattered almost throughout the core sample. In the high-friction fractures, the fracture fillings are absent (tight fractures), or consist of hard, non-softening coatings or fillings, e.g. calcite and pyrite (filled fractures), often with small amounts of chlorite, kaolinite or other clay minerals. Some open fractures also contain fillings, for example idiomorphic calcite, pyrite, illite, muscovite and rust. The low-friction fractures are mainly filled slickensided, grain-filled or clay-filled fractures. Slickensided fractures were mostly filled with chlorite, accompanied by one or several clay minerals, graphite, calcite, pyrite or illite. In many slickensided fractures, small amount of crushed rock is also present. The grain-filled fractures have a crushed rock filling, the visible grain size ranging from few to tens of millimetres in diameter, but they also include clay-size particles of unidentified clay minerals, calcite, pyrite, chlorite and

graphite. Some late hydrothermal veins were logged as fractures in purpose of better and easier documentation, and due their nature to form discontinuity surfaces. The identified fracture filling minerals of OL-KR56 according to decreasing frequency of occurrence are: calcite, chlorite, unidentified clay minerals, pyrite, illite, kaolinite, graphite, quartz, muscovite, biotite, ferrous hydroxides, fluorite, pyrrhotite, sphalerite and chalcopyrite (Figure 17). In addition an unidentified white mineral with pearly luster was found in several frctures below the depth of 900 metres. It is preliminary identified as gypsum or nacrite. There is one main fracture direction in the drillcore OL-KR56 (Figure 18). The most common joint set is near parallel to foliation (125 /25 ). Other possible joint sets are 155 /42 and 060°/77 (dip direction/dip angle). In addition there is quite a lot fracturing in random directions, which may correspond to the closed healed fractures in mica gneiss sections. When all closed fractures are reduced from the data set, three main joint sets: horizontal fractures, 140°/30° (near foliation) and 062°/80° can be observed. The fracture orientations in OL-KR56 are corrected using the deviation data from Gyro -survey.

4.6 Fracture frequency and RQD

The frequencies of natural fractures, RQD (Rock Quality Designator) (see Table 9, Figures 9 and 10) and mechanically induced breaks were all counted on one metre depth intervals (Appendix 18). The frequency of all fractures is the number of core breaks within one metre interval, including natural fractures and mechanically induced breaks. Mechanically induced breaks are caused by drilling, core handling and core discing. The natural fracture frequency is the number of natural fractures, open and closed, within one metre interval. If the frequency of all fractures is higher than the natural fracture frequency, the core must have been broken during the drilling. If the core was broken accidentally or by purpose during handling, it was marked to the core box with the letter F, and counted as a fracture or break depending on its nature. If the natural fracture frequency is higher than the frequency of all fractures, the fractures must be cohesive enough to keep the core together. The RQD gives the percentage of over 10 cm long core segments, separated by natural fractures, within one metre interval. The average natural fracture frequency of the OL-KR56 core is 2.4 pcs/m and the average RQD value is 94.2 %. There are few core loss sections (see Section 4.7) in which the

Page 43: Core Drilling of Deep Drillhole OL-KR56 at Olkiluoto in

39

number of fractures is unknown, and these are not counted into the fracture frequency averages. They are, however, considered in rock quality calculations.

4.7 Fractured zones and core loss

Fractured zones were classified according to Finnish engineering geological bedrock classification (Korhonen et al. 1974) (Table 7). In drillhole OL-KR56 50 fractured zones were intersected (Appendix 19, see also Figures 9 and 10). One of the zones is block structured (RiII), 38 are fracture structured (RiIII), ten are crush structured (RiIV) and a one is clay structured (RiV). In some cases, different types of fractured zones are found as a compound zone, composed of different types of subzones. Fractured zones are found well scattered in the drillhole, but the most prominent fractured zones (RiIV-Rk4 and RiV) occur at the drillhole depth of ~171 metres and between the drillhole depths of 347 and 444 metres. The total length of the fractured zone intersections (RiII not included) is 49.60 m, which is about 4.3 % of the total length of the core samples OL-KR56. Most of the fractured zone intersections in OL-KR56 are fairly short (drillcore intersection shorter than approximately 2.0 m). The longest one is a compound zone (RiIII-RiIV-RiIII, 3.69 m) between the drillhole depths of 345.05 and 348.74 metres. Significant core loss due to non-cohesive (clay filled fractures) rock was observed in core sample OL-KR56 at two depth sections. The first core loss section is significant (1.05 metres of core loss) and occurs at the drillcore section of 170.28 – 171.33 metres where clay structured fracture zone material has been flushed away by drilling. The other core loss section (~0.05 m of core loss) occurred at the drillcore section of 347.30 – 347.36 metres, where clay and crushed rock filling has been flushed away. Core loss due to intact rock breaking or grinding is mainly insignificant in the drillcore OL-KR56. In some places, the ends of core samples have signs of rotation, but no significant core loss was observed.

4.8 Weathering

The weathering degree of the drillcore was classified according to the method developed by Korhonen et al. (1974) and Gardemeister et al. (1976) (Table 8). About 90.7 % of the drillcore OL-KR56 is unweathered (Rp0), having only very weak and mostly local alteration, or no visible alteration at all (Appendix 20). Unweathered sections can contain local, very weak chloritization of mica, silicification, sulphidization or illitization. Weak epidotization of the plagioclase is rather common, especially near fractures. Cordierite is generally pinitized. About 9.2 % of the core can be described as slightly weathered (Rp1), containing enough alteration to possibly affect mechanical properties of the rock. The slightly weathered sections typically contain moderate chloritization, epidotization, sulphidization (+graphitization) or illitization. The alteration is commonly related to the fractured zones and surroundings of fractures, but can also be pervasive. The slightly weathered sections frequently contain epidotization of feldspars. There are two very short strongly weathered (Rp2) section in the drillhole at depth sections 172.25 – 172.45 and 790.23 – 790.30 metres (Appendix 20), which consist of almost completely hydrothermally altered soft and fragile rock. The core loss section at the drillhole depth of 170.28 – 171.33 metres is classified as completely weathered (Rp3) rock, as it is most probably composed of fault gouge and breccia.

4.9 Core discing

In Posiva’s logging procedure, core discing is logged separately, and depth intervals where core discing occurs are documented. The number of breaks and core discs is logged. The geometry of the top and bottom surfaces of the discs is described separately using the following classification:

- Concave - Convex - Planar - Saddle - Incomplete.

Core discing was found in the drillcore OL-KR56 in few places. They occur between the drillhole depths of 388 – 433 metres, 807 – 877 metres and at depth of ~1197 metres (Appendix 21).

5 ROCK MECHANICS

5.1 The rock quality

Rock quality was classified during the core logging using Barton’s Q-classification (Rock Tunneling Quality Index; Barton et al. 1974 and Grimstad & Barton 1993). The core is divided into sections, which can vary from less than a metre to tens of metres in length. In each section, the rock quality is as homogenous as possible. The roughness and alteration numbers are estimated for each fracture surface (Appendix 17). The roughness and alteration numbers (average, median and lower and higher quartiles) are then calculated for each section, and the median value is used in the Q-quality calculations. The Q-value is calculated by Equation 1 (Barton et al. 1974 and Grimstad & Barton, 1993):

SRFJ

JJ

JRQDQ w

a

r

n

** (1)

The RQD (Table 9) is defined as the cumulative length of core pieces longer than 10 cm in a run divided by the total length of the core run. Closed fractures are also counted in the RQD value. Some constant values are used in the calculations. All closed fractures with non soft filling are given joint alteration (Ja) number of 0.75 (see Table 5). If the fracture interval of the relevant joint set is over one metre, the value of 1 is given to Jn (Table 9). If the fracture interval of the relevant joint set is over three metres, the value of 1 is added to the value of Jr, (see Table 4), and Jn is given the value of 0.5. For rock sections with no fractures, the value of 5 for Jr and the value of 0.75 for Ja are used. In the calculations, joint water (Jw) and stress reduction factors (SRF) are assumed as 1, so the result of the calculation is the Q’-value. The core sample of OL-KR56 was divided to 247 units of variable lengths, the Q’-values of which were then calculated separately. The results of Q’-classification are presented in Appendix 22 and shown graphically in Figures 9 and 10. The rock quality (see Table 9) of OL-KR56 is mainly “exceptionally good” (417.45 m, 35.9 %), “good” (338.22 m, 29.1 %), “very good” (236.45 m, 20.4 %), “extremely good” (73.89 m, 6.4 %) or fair (70.95 m, 6.1 %). Additionally, 19.67 m (1.7 %) of the core sample was classified as “poor”, 3.99 m (0.3 %) as "very poor" and 1.05 m as "extremely poor". The fractured zones are mainly classified as "poor", "very poor” or "extremely poor", but in some cases as “fair”. The large number of closed fractures logged in the core caused somewhat lower RQD and Jr -values, combined with higher Ja and Jn -values in the calculations when compared to typical deep drillholes.

5.2 Rock mechanical field tests on core samples

Rock strength and deformation properties were tested with a Bemek Rock Tester -equipment. The device is meant for field-testing of rock cores to evaluate rock strength and deformation parameters. The tested rock cores can be unprepared and the test itself is easy to perform. The sample should be in one piece and at least 0.30 m long without any healed fractures and not remarkably microfractured. Young’s Modulus (E), Poisson’s ratio ( ) and Modulus of Rupture (Smax) were measured with a Bend test (Figure 19), in which the outer supports (L) were placed 190 mm apart and the inner supports (U) 58 mm apart. Diameter of the core (D) was 50.2 mm. The Young’s Modulus describes the stiffness of rock in the condition of isotropic elasticity. This can be calculated based on Hooke’s reduced law (Equation 2).

a = axial strain The Poisson’s ratio is defined as the ratio of radial strain and axial strain (Equation 3).

r (3)

r = radial strain

a = axial strain Values of Modulus of Rupture are read directly from the Bend test measurement (Figure 20). The uniaxial compressive strength c of the rock was determined indirectly from the point load test results. The point load tests were made according to the ISRM instructions (ISRM 1981 and ISRM 1985). The point load index IS50, which is determined in the test, is multiplied by 20 and the resulting value corresponds to the uniaxial compressive strength (Pohjanperä et al. 2005).

In the point load test (Figure 19), the load is increased until the core sample breaks and the point load index is calculated from the load required to break the sample. The test result is valid only if the break surface goes through the load points. The point load number IS is calculated from Equation 4.

I PDS 2 [Pa] (4)

P = point load [N] D = diameter of the core sample [mm] The point load number is dependent on the diameter of the core sample and it is therefore corrected to the point load index Is50 (i.e. a 50 mm diameter core) using Equations 5 and 6. The index Is50 is then correlated with the uniaxial compressive strength of the rock by multiplying the index by a coefficient of 20. The result is not dependent on the sample size.

Differences in measurements are caused by variations in foliation intensity and grain size. After the measurements, the following parameters are logged: angles of foliation versus point load tests (Figure 21), rock type, foliation intensity and description of foliation. The results of foliation measurements in the point-loaded samples, strength and elastic properties and the results of the tests are shown in Appendix 23. From drillcore OL-KR56, samples were taken about every 30 metres (39 samples). Of the samples, 16 are of veined gneiss (VGN), nine of diatexitic gneiss (DGN), seven of pegmatitic granite (PGR), five of mica gneiss (MGN) and two of tonalite-granite-granodiorite-gneiss (TGG) (Appendices 23 and 24). One bend test and two point load tests were performed on each sample. The mean uniaxial compressive strength of all samples is 120.0 MPa (Appendix 23). The Young's Modulus of all samples have an average of 38.3 GPa and the average Poisson’s ratio is 0.22 (Appendix 24) Uniaxial compressive strength, Young’s Modulus and Modulus of Rupture versus depth are shown in Figure 22.

6 SUMMARY

As a part of the confirming site investigations, Suomen Malmi Oy core drilled a 1201.65 metre deep drillhole (OL-KR56) in the Olkiluoto area. The drillhole was left open after drilling and drillhole surveys. The drillhole was stabilized at the drillhole depth of ~172 metres by cementing to enable further drilling. The drill rig was computer controlled. The core was drilled with wire-line technique using a triple tube core barrel, with a split inner sample tube. During the drilling, the electric conductivity and the volumes of drilling and returning water were monitored. The monitoring aimed at getting additional information on the bedrock quality. In the drillhole OL-KR56, the electric conductivity of the returning water varied from 18.7 to 113.6 mS/m. The drilling water was labelled with sodium fluorescein. During the drilling, washing and flushing of OL-KR56, about 1628.3 m³ of labelled water was used. The amount of the returning water from the drillhole was about 1104.7 m³. Finally, the drillhole was flushed by pumping about 37.7 m³ of water from the bottom of the drillhole. The deviation of the drillhole OL-KR56 was measured with Reflex EMS- and Reflex Gyro deviation survey tools. Both surveys were considered to be equally reliable in this drillhole. According to the Gyro and EMS results, the horizontal deviation of the drillhole OL-KR56 at the depth of 1201.65 metres is 160.5 metres to the east and 51.4 metres to the north and the vertical deviation 29 metres upwards in relation to the planned path coordinates of the drillhole at drillhole bottom depth. Uniaxial compressive strength, Young’s Modulus, and Poisson’s ratio were determined from the core samples. The average uniaxial compressive strength is 120.0 MPa, Young’s Modulus 38.3 GPa and Poisson’s ratio 0.22. The main rock types intersected by the drillholes are migmatitic gneisses (diatexitic gneiss and veined gneiss), mica gneiss and pegmatitic granite. Tonalitic-granodioritic-granitic, K-feldspar porphyry and sections of quartz gneiss occur among the migmatitic gneisses. The rock samples are mostly unweathered or slightly weathered. The average fracture frequency in drillhole OL-KR56 is 2.4 fractures per metre and the mean RQD value is 94.2 %. In the drillhole OL-KR56 50 fractured zones were intersected. The most prominent fractured zone occur at the drillhole depth of ~172

metres. Total core loss in the drillhole was 1.10 metres. In the drillhole 96.2 % of the core was oriented.
