Thank you for visiting the 'Thorium Page' where we devote a lot of energy to Thorium as a clean, safe alternative to nuclear power plants powered by uranium. Thorium is 1) far more abundant than uranium, 2) far less expensive to produce than uranium, 3) far safer then uranium, and 4) IT CANNOT BE USED TO MANUFACTURE NUCLEAR WEAPONS! ~ Rodney Spooner

Post navigation InvestorIntel Special Report: Rare Earth Industry Leaders on U.S. Bill HR 4883
On June 17 of this year (2014), US House Representative, Steve Stockman, introduced Bill HR 4883 “to provide for the establishment of a National Rare-Earth Refinery Cooperative, and for other purposes. The Bill was referred to the House Committee on Armed Services. The Bill intends to reduce the United States’ reliance on Chinese rare earths by encouraging an increase in US production by facilitating the processing of thorium-bearing rare-earth concentrates as residual unprocessed and unrefined ores. The general point of the law is to encourage the US defense department to purchase rare earth minerals from domestic sources. |

Atomic Car Revisited: Thorium Could Power A Vehicle for 100 Years?
A car that could run for 100 years on one tank of fuel? It sounds like a far-fetched idea, but it is just what a company is apparently claiming possible with the use of an atomic fuel that was abandoned during the Nixon administration. We’re talking about the sounds-too-good-to-be-true substance called “Thorium.” Thorium is a naturally occurring radioactive element. It was discovered in 1828 by a Norwegian mineralogist and identified by a Swedish chemist, who then named it after the Norse god, Thor. |
