Our experimental investigations show that the general problem of radioactive waste disposal can be solved and that it is possible to confine radioactive waste elemnets in synthetic rocks more tightly than they are held in natural crystalline igneous and metamorphic rocks. Moreover, additional effective barriers between radioactive waste elements and the biosphere are provided by carefully chosen container materials and burial in highly retentive geological sites.; B&W Illustrations; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 63 pages DF7.
