India's 30\% Thorium resource base can fuel for next 2500 years of Electricity

India is trying hard to get a n-deal when it's a superpower in Thorium and stands 2nd in Thorium deposit with which it can be selfsufficient for next 2500 years.





It's fate of our politicians to pledge 30 years of Abdul Kalam, Anil Kadodkar and n no of unknown Indian Scients R&D Efforts.





Dont just support either Cong / Left / BJP. All the parties are fighting each other for what we dont need that much thru this N-Deal.





See the below links and think of yourself who's dependednt on whoom.





Uranium is past energy, Thorium is future energy, until every other country get's Helium from Moon in 2020. So, we're unnecessaryly going for a n-deal which makes our Worlds' only Thorium Plant and technology exposed to every dick and jerry country.





We need to spend more, to get costliest energy and create dependency on NSG countries for Uranium, when Indian is having almost 30\% of Worlds' Thorium deposits





Fast breeder reactor - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fast_breeder_reactor





Quote from above URL:


"India has the capability to use Thorium Cycle based processes to extract nuclear fuel. This is of special significance to the Indian nuclear power generation strategy as India has large reserves of thorium about 360,000 tonnes that can fuel nuclear projects for an estimated 2,500 years. But the hitch is with the expensive nature of the construction of Fast Breeder Reactor in comparison with the Pressurised Heavy Water Reactors (PHWR) in use. This is one of the main reasons why India is looking at the cheaper option - Uranium fuel."





- So, our only issue here is spending much on constructing the Heavy Water Reactors. But, Russia is already assisting us to minimise the cost, since they too are spending much on R&D for Thorium based reactors

So, Thorium is as common as Lead in the World, but not utilized properly, since Western countries abandoned it. Now, they want to explore the options.
