Geological settings selected as potential host formations for the deep
geological disposal of radioactive waste are chosen for, among other assets,
their long-term stability and buffering capacity against destabilising events
and processes. These proceedings present the outcomes of a geosphere stability
workshop, held in November 2007, that focused on crystalline and other types
of hard, fractured rocks. The workshop underscored the fact that many such
rocks are intrinsically stable environments that evolve extremely slowly and
provide good buffering against external events and processes.

The proceedings show a good understanding of the processes and events that can
affect crystalline rocks and, although there is less confidence in predicting
exactly when and where such events will occur and the volume of rock that will
be affected, the extent of the impacts on a geological repository can be
confidently addressed using bounding approaches supported by geological
information from similar sites around the world.
