ABSTRACT:
A depository for storing radioactive waste is comprised of a material such as natural rock, magmatic rock, or concrete. The construction body has an interior storage chamber. The size and the wall thickness of the construction body prevent emission of radioactive radiation during a projected storage time of several thousand years. The construction body is designed to provide a free, stable support on a concave to flat ground surface so that a displacement of the construction body due to tectonic movements of the earth's crust does not have an effect on its free and stable support. Preferably, the construction body has the shape of a tetrahedron.
