Density-dependent and topographically-driven subsurface brine flow was modeled in regional-scale and Deep Borehole Disposal-scale domains under varying conditions. These conditions included variable basement permeability, brine density, and hydraulic head. Findings revealed the possibility of hydraulic isolation of deep basement for at least 1 million years under appropriate conditions, which supports the viability of the Deep Borehole Disposal concept.
