YMP Switzerland 🇨🇭 at Mont Terri: Discovering the Future of Nuclear Waste Disposal

Go 300 meters underground with Young Mining Professionals Switzerland! 🇨🇭
Saturday, 20 September 2025 | Mont Terri Project

Radioactive waste disposal means safely isolating materials that stay hazardous for tens of thousands of years. One major solution? Deep geological repositories — engineered underground facilities designed to withstand groundwater, earthquakes, and time itself.

At Mont Terri, Switzerland’s world-class rock lab buried 300 meters below ground, scientists are testing clay formations for thir ability to contain radiation over millennia.

📆 This September, Young Mining Professionals Switzerland invites its members to an exclusive visit to Mont Terri — a rare chance to witness cutting-edge nuclear waste research up close.
