Contents & fields

This dataset contains 3-D models of the geological structure of the Sellafield site created using EarthVision and Vulcan software, imported into BGS computer systems. The data resource links to the Nirex geological archive page, covering topics such as boreholes, deep drilling, geology, geophysics, seismographs, and site investigations. No field-level description is publicly available on the source page.

Research uses

Suitable for geological structure analysis for radioactive waste repository siting, 3-D geological modelling methodology research, and geological history studies of the Sellafield and Dounreay areas.
