We have carried out laboratory measurements of P-wave velocity and deformation strain during $CO_2$ injection into a porous sandstone sample, in dry and water-saturated conditions. The rock sample was cylindrical, with the axis normal to the bedding plane, and fluid injection was performed from one end. Using a piezoelectric transducer array system, we mapped fluid movement during injection of distilled water into dry sandstone, and of gaseous, liquid, and supercritical $CO_2$ into a water-saturated sample. The velocity changes caused by water injection ranged from $5.61\;to\;7.52\%$. The velocity changes caused by $CO_2$ injection are typically about $-6\%$, and about $-10\%$ for injection of supercritical $CO_2$, Such changes in velocity show that the seismic method may be useful in mapping $CO_2$ movement in the subsurface. Strain normal to the bedding plane was greater than strain parallel to the bedding plane during $CO_2$ injection; injection of supercritical $CO_2$ showed a particularly strong effect. Strain changes suggest the possibility of monitoring rock mass deformation by using borehole tiltmeters at geological sequestration sites. We also found differences associated with $CO_2$ phases in velocity and strain changes during injection.

To better understand the permeability of uranium sandstone, improve the leaching rate of uranium, and explore the change law of pore structure characteristics and blocking mechanism during leaching, we systematically analyzed the microstructure of acid-leaching uranium sandstone. We investigated the variable rules of pore structure characteristics based on nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). The results showed the following: (1) The uranium concentration change followed the exponential law during uranium deposits acid leaching. After 24 h, the uranium leaching rate reached 50%. The uranium leaching slowed gradually over the next 4 days. (2) Combined with the regularity of porosity variation, Stages I and II included chemical plugging controlled by surface reaction. Stage I was the major completion phase of uranium displacement with saturation precipitation of calcium sulfate. Stage II mainly precipitated iron (III) oxide-hydroxide and aluminum hydroxide. Stage III involved physical clogging controlled by diffusion. (3) In the three stages of leaching, the permeability of the leaching solution changed with the pore structure, which first decreased, then increased, and then decreased.

To investigate the influence of different burial conditions on the seepage characteristics of loose sandstone in the leaching mining of sandstone uranium ore, this study applied different ground pressures and water pressures to rock samples at different burial depths to alter the rock's seepage characteristics. The permeability, pore distribution, and particle distribution characteristic parameters were determined, and the results showed that at the same burial depth, ground pressure had a greater effect on the reduction in permeability than water pressure. The patterns and mechanisms are as follows: under the influence of ground pressure, increasing the burial depth compresses the pores in the rock samples, decreases the proportion of effective permeable pores, and causes particle fragmentation, which blocks pore channels, resulting in a decrease in permeability. Under the influence of water pressure, increasing the burial depth expands the pores but also causes hard clay particles to decompose and block pore channels. As the burial depth increases, the particles eventually decompose completely, and the permeability initially decreases and then increases. In this experiment, the relationships between permeability and the proportion of pores larger than 0.15 ㎛ and the proportion of particles smaller than 59 ㎛ were found to be the most significant.

pH buffer capacities (pHBC, $cmol_c\;kg^{-1}\;pH^{-1}$) of 6 residual Entisols derived from granite, granite-gneiss, limestone, sandstone, shale, and basalt in Korea were studied. Soil acidity may become a problem if the soil pH is reduced to critical levels when nutrient cycles are unbalanced (especially N, C and S). The relation between the pHBC and the physico-chemical properties of the 6 soils was also studied. In the A horizons of all the soils except Euiseong series developed from sandstone, the contents of clay, organic matter and cation exchange capacity (CEC) were higher than those of C horizon, but bulk density and pH were lower than C horizon. Clay content of Euiseong series decreased with soil depth, which might be caused by the elluviation. The soils developed from granite, granite-gneiss and sandstone have a higher $SiO_2$ content than those developed from basalt and limestone. The contents of $Fe_2O_3$ and MgO were high in the soils from developed from basalt, limestone and shale comparing with the soils from granite, granite-gneiss and sandstone. The soils from basalt and limestone showed higher values of ignition loss than those from the other parent rocks. The pHBC of the soils was ranged from 1.8 to 3.2 $cmol_c\;kg^{-1}\;pH^{-1}$ showing as follows : basalt, limestone > shale, granite-gneiss > granite sandstone.

This study were performed thermal shock test for four kind of different rocks (Iksan granite, Namsan granite, Jeongseon marble, Yeongyang sandstone), and according to heating temperature($400^{\circ}C$, $600^{\circ}C$) on samples were investigated physical properties such as specify gravity, porosity, p-wave velocity. As a result, the tendency was appeared that porosity increased, and specific gravity and p-wave velocity decreased at a more higher temperature. But, the situation of change appeared characteristic according to temperature and rock types. In the case of Yeongyang sandstone, it appeared in especially porosity increasing at $400^{\circ}C$. The specific gravity was little change in the all the rock at $400^{\circ}C$ but the decreased at $600^{\circ}C$. Therefore the specific gravity in the temperature range is due to the relatively small impact on the change is expected. Porosity of the granite at $400^{\circ}C$ changes little. but marble in the rate of change is large. Conversely, the sandstone porosity decreased. At $600^{\circ}C$ increased porosity in all of rocks. particularly sandstone the smallest increase in porosity. Experiments showed that p-wave velocity measured through dry rocks was sensitive to quantify the thermal damage. The p-wave velocity of all rocks decreased with increasing temperature. In the relation between porosity and p-wave velocity, p-wave velocity decreased with increasing porosity. On the other hand, in case of Yeongyang sandstone p-wave velocity decreased with decreasing porosity. thus, development of microcracks more affects p-wave velocity than porosity. In this study, damage intensity was well explained with porosity and p-wave velocity values depending on temperature increase.

사암과 안산암에 대한 풍화특성을 살펴보기 위하여 동결융해 반복시험을 실시한 후, 두 암석에 대한 중량 감소율, 탄성파속도, 일축압축강도 등의 물성 변화를 측정하였다. 중량 변화의 경우 두 암석 모두에서 동결 융해 반복 횟수가 증가함에 중량이 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 특히 안산암에서는 중량 감소 경향이 시험편에 따라 매우 불규칙하게 나타났다. 탄성파속도 변화에 있어서 사암은 5%이상의 감소 경향을 보였으며, 안산암은 동결융해 반복시험 500 사이클까지 탄성파속도 변화가 거의 없다가 1000 사이클부터 5%이상의 감소 현상을 보였다. 이것은 안산암이 비교적 풍화에 강한 암석인 반면, 사암은 풍화받기 쉬운 암석인 것을 의미한다. 또한 안산암의 탄성파속도 변화 양상은 안산암의 중량 변화와 일치한다. 사암의 일축압축시험 결과에서 일축압축강도는 동결융해 반복시험 초기 사이클 구간에서 미미한 강도저하를 보이다 64 사이클부터는 불규칙한 경향을 나타냈다. 결과적으로, 중량 감소가 적은 암석 시험편일수록 강도저하율도 작게 나타났다.

The instability and failure of engineered rock masses are influenced by crack initiation and propagation. Uniaxial compression and acoustic emission (AE) experiments were conducted on cracked sandstone. The effect of the crack's dip on the crack initiation was investigated using fracture mechanics. The crack propagation was investigated based on stress-strain curves, AE multi-parameter characteristics, and failure modes. The results show that the crack initiation occurs at the tip of the pre-fabricated crack, and the crack initiation angle increases from 0° to 70° as the dip angle increases from 0° to 90°. The fracture strength k_cr is derived varies in a U-shaped pattern as β increased, and the superior crack angle β_m is between 36.2 and 36.6 and is influenced by the properties of the rock and the crack surface. Low-strength, large-scale tensile cracks form during the crack initiation in the cracked sandstone, corresponding to the start of the AE energy, the first decrease in the b-value, and a low r-value. When macroscopic surface cracks form in the cracked sandstone, high-strength, large-scale shear cracks form, resulting in a rapid increase in the AE energy, a second decrease in the b-value and an abrupt increase in the r-value. This research has significant theoretical implications for rock failure mechanisms and establishment of damage indicators in underground engineering.

국내 육상 이산화탄소 지중저장 후보지 중 하나로 거론되고 있는 경상분지 사암에 대하여 초임계$CO_2$ 주입에 의한 사암의 용해반응을 규명하는 실내 실험을 실시하였다. 초임계$CO_2$로 존재하는 지중저장 온도/압력조건(100 bar와 $50^{\circ}C$)을 재현한 스테인레스 셀(용량 110 ml) 내부에 지하수를 주입한 후, 공극률이 다른 3 종류의 경상분지 사암 시료에 대하여 슬랩으로 제작하여 표면을 폴리싱한 후 고압셀 하부에 고정시켜 지하수에 잠기게 하였으며, 초임계$CO_2$를 주입한 후 60 일 동안 지하수 용존 이온 농도 변화, 질량 변화, 광물의 평균 표면 거칠기 변화를 측정하였다. 사암의 물성 변화 실험에서는 채취한 3 종류의 경상분지 사암들을 원통형 코어 형태로 가공하여 대형 고온고압탱크(2 liter 용량)에 고정시켜 30 일 동안 반응 시킨 후 공극률, 건조밀도, 탄성파 속도, 일축압축강도 등을 측정하여 용해반응에 의한 사암의 물성변화를 규명하였다. 반응 시간에 따른 사암 코어의 무게를 측정하여 질량 변화에 따른 1차 용해반응 상수값($k_d$)을 계산하였으며, 이 용해상수를 이용하여 단위면적($cm^2$) 당 1 g의 사암시료가 완전히 용해되는데 걸리는 용해시간을 계산하였다. 사암 슬랩을 이용한 지중저장 조건에서 초임계$CO_2$-사암-지하수 반응 실험 결과 $Ca^{2+}$, $Na^+$의 용해반응이 활발하게 일어나는 것으로 나타나, 이들 함량이 높은 사장석, 방해석 등을 중심으로 사암의 용해반응이 일어남을 알 수 있었으며, 반응 30 일 후 초기 A사암 슬랩 무게의 0.66%가 반응에 의해 용해되었다. 경상분지 사암의 물성 변화 실험 결과, $CO_2$ 반응 30 일 동안 B사암과 C사암의 공극률은 초기 공극률 기준 16.2%와 7.4% 증가하는 반면, 건조밀도, 탄성파 속도 그리고 일축압축강도는 감소하는 경향을 보였으며, 이 결과는 초임계$CO_2$와 반응하여 암석의 용해반응에 의한 물성변화가 짧은 시간 동안 활발히 일어나고 있음을 의미한다. 계산된 용해반응상수값($k_d$)으로부터 B사암과 C사암의 경우 사암에 주입된 $CO_2$에 의하여 단위면적($cm^2$)당 1 g이 용해되는데 각각 평균 1,532 년과 329 년이 걸리는 것으로 나타나, $CO_2$ 지중저장 시 사암의 용해반응이 짧은 시간동안 활발히 일어날 수 있음을 입증하였다.
