Mont Terri to be the site of the future swisstopo drill core storage facility
The halls of the former lime kilns in St-Ursanne are to become a storage facility for drill core samples of national geological interest. This new core library will be operated by swisstopo, which is already present on the site as part of the Mont Terri Project. Renovation work is currently underway, and once this is completed a high-bay storage system on pallets will be installed. The stored geological cores will then be available for research.
