I loved this video right up until I saw that the product was being shipped around the world. What % of Polyhalite is being used in the UK? Also, how did the Americans get in on this? Do we ever keep anything for ourselves?
@derekdouglas500723 күн бұрын
I saw a video the other day showing an existing one mile deep mine not far from the site of this one that has been mining polyhalite for many years. It takes 45 minutes to travel from the surface to the mining face. They are already miles under the ocean.

Why would site preparation take two years? To level a few acres, build a compacted pad and lay down a concrete slab - two years? The Roman legions built forts to this moated design in weeks. Two years gives local opposition time to gather social momentum. Sharpen your pencil.

following michael snyder and his interview in the bulletin trumpism enters energy policy there is even more nuclear waste MacFarlane and colleagues’ paper, which is pretty logical if you think about it. If you have a small quantity of nuclear material that irradiates other materials, then it’s proportionally more per installed megawatt than for a large reactor in which there is a larger core.

The 11.485 tons of spent fuel generated in one year by one 470MW reactor can fuel 12 1GW Molten Salt Reactors for one year. 940 kg of natural thorium in a Molten Salt Reactor (MSR) can generate 1 gigawatt (GW) of electricity for one year. The 87.21 tons of unused depleted uranium processed to obtain the 11.487 tons of enriched uranium can fuel a further 92 1GW Molten Salt Reactors for one year.

Why do they hide things? Just adds extra unnecessary costs and time spent in the planning stage. Mines look amazing as part of the landscape. They’ve done the same with HS2 - building most of it underground. A high speed train would look great flying through the countryside.
