Title:	CERN Future Circular Collider - The Mining the Future competition / CERN-FCC Future Circular Collider - Der Wettbewerb Mining the Future
Abstract:	CERN (Conseil Européen pour la Recherche Nucléaire) is the world's largest research centre for high-energy and particle physics. The research infrastructure contributed to the greatest successes in the field of experimental physics. A new, approximatively 91 km long subsurface infrastructure connected to the existing particle accelerator complex is being conceived in the frame of the Future Circular Collider. It would serve a global community of researchers with two subsequently operated particle colliders until the end of the 21st century. Even at an early stage of such a project, comprehensive investigations have to be carried out into the nature of the subsoil in order to find an optimal utilisation strategy for the excavated material in accordance with the national and international regulations in order to promote the recycling of excavated tunnel material in terms of resource conservation and the improvement of the sustainability of underground construction projects. CERN (Conseil Européen pour la Recherche Nucléaire) ist das weltweit größte Forschungszentrum für Teilchenphysik. Mit seinen Teilchenbeschleunigern trug diese Organisation zu einigen der größten Erfolge im Bereich der Experimentalphysik bei. Mit einer etwa 91 km langen, kreisförmigen unterirdischen Infrastruktur kann bis zum Ende des 21. Jahrhunderts ein Programm im Bereich der physikalischen Grundlagenforschung mit zwei nacheinander installierten Teilchenbeschleunigern durchgeführt werden. Schon in einem frühen Stadium eines solchen Projekts müssen umfassende Untersuchungen zur Beschaffenheit des Baugrunds durchgeführt werden, um für das anfallende Ausbruchmaterial eine Verwertungsstrategie zu finden, die mit den national und international geltenden Vorschriften im Einklang steht, um die Verwertung von Tunnelausbruchmaterial im Sinne der Ressourcenschonung und der Verbesserung der Nachhaltigkeit von Untertagebauprojekten voranzutreiben.
