    Yes there are archaeological sites which have been forgotten and rediscovered.

    Nothing you’re saying is a strong argument about self sealing deep storage waste burial sites. I don’t think you realize just how little waste nuclear reactors produce, they’re not pyramids, they’re a few barrels across years.

        I’m well aware of the hazards communication projects. Not really relevant to deep salt storage.

        Thousands of years is nothing across geologic time scales.

        Yeah 11 tons is literally nothing. That’s only 575 m^3 of uranium.

        That’s a third by mass of the average single German households trash production across the same time period. And it’s more dense, so less volume.
