Thorium Salt Reactor was researched to handle this but something about it's viability or something was brought up after it became viral on YouTube. We won't mine Thorium because of it's EPA restrictions but if we did we could also mine our Lithium Deposits because it's all part of our rare earth makeup. I'm a dumbass former Grunt who welds now so take all of this with a grain of salt knowing I have no formal education on the matter 🤷♂️🤣
Oh, rare earth stuff. Yes, we'd better leave that to the Chinese, who are known for their earth-friendly processes!
I had it mixed up, I thought there was something that was done in other countries already, but they wouldn't allow here for some reason. Thanks for explaining!
