India does not have uranium mines
by Praveen George on Jul 03, 2008 08:28 AM   Permalink

India unfortunately is not a country where we can go to a mountain and mine uranium , if it were we would not go begging like this.The reason for the embargo is no one wants uranium for fuel to be used to make bombs.I don't think India has a choice here , we eventually have to agree to what the rest of the world tells us unless we have technology that can use thorium which is abundant in the kerala coastal sand beds.I am quite confused here , in school texts we used to learn here we are the worlds top leaders in fast breeder reactors and we produce more fuel than we consume ?Was that just hoodwinking the public?
