Thermal conductivity or thermal diffusivity were measured for some rock samples using a modified Angstroem or an impulse method. Up to 8 kbar, the investigations were performed under hydrostatic conditions. For higher pressures and high temperatures, a quasihydrostatic pressure generation was used. Differences in the lower pressure range were found. In many cases the thermal conductivity increases linearly with rising pressure from a rate of around 10-3 up to around 10-2 kbar-1. The temperature-dependence of the thermal diffusivity was often proportional to the reciprocal absolute temperature. The two opposite effects will be partly compensated in investigations of the depth-dependence. As a result of both influences, the thermal diffusivity seems to pass through a minimum.
