A Strange Little Company
(Does anything about this little start-up impress you as 'odd'?)"Thorium Power, Ltd., a development stage company, engages in the development, promotion, and marketing of nuclear fuel designs in the United States. It primarily develops thorium/weapons-grade plutonium disposing fuel, thorium/reactor-grade plutonium disposing fuel, and thorium/uranium nuclear fuel." Headquarters: McLean, VA "Thorium Power Appoints Dr. Hans Blix as Senior Advisor" "...the leading developer of low-waste, non-proliferative nuclear fuel technology for existing and future reactors, today announced that a new formal agreement has been reached with Russia's Kurchatov Institute relating to the irradiation testing program for the Company's fuel designs, which has been ongoing since 2002. The agreement assigns to Thorium Power Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Thorium Power, Ltd., the worldwide rights, title and interest in and to the technical data generated from the ampoule irradiation testing of seed and blanket fuel samples in the Kurchatov research reactor over the past two years."
