As a trial to show the history of Tono Mine, this report summarizes the abstracts of literature, which is hit in the JAEA Originated Papers Searching System (JOPSS) referred with a word of "Tono Mine", in time order. 214 JAEA Reports, 54 papers and 9 oral presentations have been hit with free-word search using a word of "Tono Mine" in the JOPSS on February 1st, 2022. This report summarizes the abstracts of JAEA Reports mainly, as JAEA Reports are prepared in each activity in the mine. However there are few JAEA Reports of uranium exploration, some reports can be found out in the JOPSS and describe the history of uranium exploration activities in and around the Tono Mine. Histories of the Power Reactor and Nuclear Fuel Development Corporation also contain some descriptions and chronological tables relating to the Tono Mine. The extracts of these reports and histories are shown in this report as the history of Tono Mine during the time of uranium exploration.

As part of the research and development program on geological disposal of high-level radioactive waste (HLW), the Horonobe Underground Research Center, a division of the Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA), is implementing the Horonobe Underground Research Laboratory Project (Horonobe URL Project) with the aim at investigating sedimentary rock formations. According to the research plan described in the 3rd Mid- and Long-term Plan of JAEA, according to the Horonobe URL Project, "Near-field performance study", "Demonstration of repository design option", and "Verification of crustal-movement buffering capacity of sedimentary rocks" are the top priority issues, and schedule for finishing the project and backfill plan will be decides by the end of 2019 Fiscal Year. The Horonobe URL Project is planned to extend over a period of about 20 years. This report summarizes the investigation program for the 2017 fiscal year (2017/2018).

The Mizunami Underground Research Laboratory Project (MIU Project) is being pursued by the Japan Atomic Energy Agency to enhance the reliability of geological disposal technologies through investigations of the deep geological environment in the crystalline host rock at Mizunami City, Gifu Prefecture, central Japan. On the occasion of the reform of the entire JAEA organization in 2014, JAEA identified three important remaining issues on the geoscientific research program based on the synthesized latest results of research and development: Development of countermeasure technologies for reducing groundwater inflow, Development of modeling technologies for mass transport and Development of drift backfilling technology. The research and development of three remaining important issues have been carrying out in the MIU Project. The achievement and future plan of the MIU Project are summarized in this presentation.
