The research work will begin as soon as contracts can be issued. It will .involve drilling into rock formations . called plutons near Atikokan to obtiain, vidence that will help scientists determine how highly insoluble nuclear fuel wastes can be safely disposed of deep in the rock of the Canadian. Shield. The work in the Atikokan area is for research purposes only, and does not mean Atikokan is being investigat- ed as a potential site for a nuclear waste disposal vault. The town . council . passed a resolution .:1979 March 6, allowing AECL to proceed with the research work but noted that this does not commit Atikokan as a dispos- al site. Research has -already been. conducted on different types of rock at Chalk River, Ontario and at Pinawa, Man- itoba. The Atikokan plutons represent another of eight types of rock formations to be LAST NIGHT THURS., JULY 5 BOX OFFICE OPENS 8:00 P -M. - SHOWTIME 9:30 Starts FRIDAY! PRI.

While only ane of the eight rock types is being investigated in the Atikokan area, some of the other seven types also exist in the region. The process of selecting a site for a demonstration disposal vault will not begin until the preliminary re- search is complete and the safety of the disposal concept has been established. This is expected to take at least until 1982. By that time, the research will have identified perhaps as many as 100 of the 1,500plutons known to exist in. Ontario's Canadian Shield as suitable for dispos- al' sites. Full-scale disposal . will not take place until after the year 2,000. The, specific research, work to be'tierformed near Atikok- an, involves airborne, sur- face and subsurface investi- gations of faults (cracks)" and inter -block areas (places where two different types of 'rock join) in two rock forma- tions -- the Dashwa Lake • pluton, about .20 kilometres northwest of Atikokan,. and the Marmion Lake pluton, about six kilometres : north- , east of the town. The work will include about' 2,000 metres of diamond drilling, , • which will likely be complet- ed in the summer of 1979. Follow-up work in the bore- holes and analysis of the results will likely take. a 'further. 18. months. Full tech- nical results of the research will be made public.
