Not so many years ago when the subject of geochemistry was mentioned, topics such as crustal abundance of the various elements, radiochemical age dating, or computer modeling of stable chemical states immediately came to mind. Most engineers in the geotechnical professions equated geochemistry with analytical services. However, there is a rapidly emerging side to the discipline of geochemistry which relates directly to geotechnical practices in waste disposal.
