I wonder where the US is going to turn to get their Uranium...?!

The HEU-LEU agreement is due to end in November 2013 with the final contracted tons of nuclear fuel delivered to the American customer, United States Enrichment Corporation (USEC).

The US has the highest number of commercial nuclear power plants and is the biggest consumer of nuclear fuel in the world.

To meet the high internal consumption the US government has not only been buying uranium fuel from Russia, but also has been converting its own nuclear warheads into power plant fuel. In 1996, the US government declared 174.3 tons of military HEU as surplus and recycled it into LEU fuel.



But guess what... They need more... Where they gonna get it from?!? Hmmmm... Locally?! I guess so b/c there's no where else to get it from...
