Abstract
Zirconolite as a component of SYNROC (a proposed high level waste disposal matrix) was examined. Coherent polytypic intergrowths were observed which gave rise to laminar zirconolite domains. It is proposed that the intergrowth of zirconolite polytypes on a unit cell scale provides a means of incorporating cationic impurities in the parent structure.
