English term or phrase: burial
The hydraulic properties of the mill sands can be seen to be relatively insensitive to changes in dry density, which will result from an increasing depth of +++burial+++; therefore, the mill sands were treated as a homogeneous material in subsequent seepage and slope stability modeling. For modeling purposes, the mill sands were assigned the hydraulic properties associated with the predicted, overall, average dry density of 1.68 g/cm3 (and hydraulic conductivity of 4.2×10-5 cm/sec).

Explanation:
El contexto parece indicar que existe un incremento en la profundidad del sepultamiento o hundimiento de las arenas en el molino, lo que indica que se van más abajo, que quedan hundidas. Buried en geología y minería se traduce generalmente como algo sepultado, oculto, por abajo de otros materiales...
