Here i have raise this concern to Grath : Thorium
According to my knowledge, it is one of the rare earth metal, and this mineral as a source of nuclear fuel it is claimed to produce less shorter half life waste. Be more difficult to use in nuclear weapons. More suitable then uranium as a fuel and more abundant in the earths crust.

and just wondering u have any idea which australian mining company is operating on this mineral?
Cheers,
Best regards,
Bruce

Not only is he hopelessly naive, but he’s the biggest hypocrite on the block.

Would he support more commonsense environmental laws? No.

Limits on government set-asides of federal land (not allowing mining)? No.

Holding back on revising the 1872 Mining Act? No.

But here he is, calling for new domestic sources, and asking why nobody has done anything. And expecting China to act in any other way except to protect its own interests?

The guy is useless.

get back to attending to the NATION’S security[military, borders, trade, economy].
