Laboratory investigations of geotechnical properties of rock salt in Polish salt deposits : J. Ślizowski & S. Nagy S. Burliga

This paper presents the results of studies conducted on Permian rock salt sampled in 3 geological locations in Poland, in stratiform and diapiric deposits. Different types of rock salt were geomechanically tested and simulation of cavern convergence was carried out based on the laboratory results. The presented tests were conducted in the following laboratories: OBR “Chemkop”, Krakow (Poland), AGH-UST, Krakow (Poland), MINES ParisTech, Paris (France) and UHD, Huston (USA).
