A recently declassified geological survey suggests that China may have far more thorium than previously estimated, placing the country at the forefront of next-generation nuclear energy. The discovery ...

Alphas come from radon gas emitted by radioactive minerals in the ground, largely originally uranium. The thorium source is from an old lantern mantle used to increase the brightness of camping ...

China could be sitting on top of enough thorium to power its energy needs almost forever, a national survey has revealed. This one radioactive metal alone could revolutionise global energy ...
