Abstract:Abstract. This study delves into the characterisation of a heterogenous reservoir, the Tchirezrine II sandstone unit in northern Niger. The characterisation is crucial for potential uranium in situ recovery (ISR) in a naturally fractured and faulted context. Employing a multifaceted approach, including well log data, optical borehole imagery, and hydrogeological tests, alongside satellite-based lineament analysis, this study provides a comprehensive understanding of the structures and their impact on fluid flo… Show more
