    21/2/12 GeolFrameworkPaper_postreview_v2acceptchanges_editorcomments New insights from 3D geological models at analogue CO2 storage sites in Lincolnshire and eastern Scotland, UK. Alison Monaghan1*, Jonathan Ford2, Antoni Milodowski2, David McInroy1, Timothy Pharaoh2, Jeremy Rushton2, Mike Browne1, Anthony Cooper2, Andrew Hulbert2 and Bruce Napier2 1 British Geological Survey, Murchison House, West Mains Road, Edinburgh, EH9 3LA, UK. 2 British Geological Survey, Kingsley Dunham Centre, Keyworth, Nottingham, NG12 5GG, UK. * Corresponding author (email [email protected] (Approx.15,600 words in total, 25 figures) SUMMARY: Subsurface 3D geological models of aquifer and seal rock systems from two contrasting analogue sites have been created as the first step in an investigation into methodologies for geological storage of carbon dioxide in saline aquifers. Development of the models illustrates the utility of an integrated approach using digital techniques and expert geological knowledge to further geological understanding. The models visualize a faulted, gently dipping Permo-Triassic succession in Lincolnshire and a complex faulted and folded Devono-Carboniferous succession in eastern Scotland. The Permo-Triassic is present in the Lincolnshire model to depths of -2 km OD, and includes the aquifers of the Sherwood Sandstone and Rotliegendes groups. Model-derived thickness maps test and refine Permian palaeogeography, such as the location of a carbonate reef and its associated seaward slope, and the identification of aeolian dunes. Analysis of borehole core samples established average 2D porosity values for the Rotliegendes (16%) and Sherwood Sandstone (20%) groups, and the Zechstein (5%) and Mercia Mudstone (<10%) groups, which are favourable for aquifer and seal units respectively. Core sample analysis has revealed a complex but well understood diagenetic history.

I must thank Dr. Alain Saint-Saens for his generous encouragement and advice concerning not only graduate work but the historian's profession in general; also Dr. Joseph Byrnes for so kindly serving on my committee at such short notice. To Dr. Ron Petrin I extend my heartfelt appreciation for his unflagging concern for my academic progress; our relationship has been especially rewarding on both an academic and personal level. In particular I would like to thank my friend and mentor, Dr. Paul Bischoff who has guided my explorations of the medieval world and its denizens. His dogged--and occasionally successful--efforts to develop my skills are directly responsible for whatever small progress I may have made as an historian. To my friends and fellow teaching assistants I extend warmest thanks for making the past two years so enjoyable. For the many hours of comradeship and mutual sympathy over the trials and tribulations of life as a teaching assistant I thank Wendy Gunderson, Sandy Unruh, Deidre Myers, Russ Overton, Peter Kraemer, and Kelly McDaniels.

    Georesources Cornwall Working Paper

    VERSION 15 August 2019 WORKING PAPER Version 10 October 2019 Georesources Cornwall Recommendations for development of the Georesources sector in Cornwall 1 VERSION 15 August 2019 REMIX project The aim of this Georesources Cornwall document is to advise Cornwall Council and Cornwall and Isles of Scilly Local Enterprise Partnership on the mining and related opportunities in Cornwall and how best they might be encouraged and facilitated. It is an output of the REMIX project. REMIX was funded by Interreg Europe to encourage resource efficient and environmentally and socially acceptable production of raw materials by working with regional policy instruments. It brought together partners and stakeholders across nine European regions, at different stages of the mining cycle, to share knowledge and develop best practice guidelines. Camborne School of Mines, University of Exeter was the partner for the region. In Cornwall we brought together stakeholders, especially Cornwall Council and the companies in the Cornwall Mining Alliance for workshops on specific topics and facilitated travel to European partners to a series of peer review meetings to learn from their activities and experience. A peer review visit of European partners to Cornwall was held in May 2018. Various interviews were also held with individual businesses. Expertise external to the university was used to help compile information, especially on mineral rights, mine water geothermal energy, the Cornwall Mining Alliance business cluster and potential economic development through growth of this sector. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Contents Summary recommendations 1.
