China Discovers “Limitless” Thorium Energy
China has reportedly uncovered a massive thorium deposit at the Bayan Obo mining complex in Inner Mongolia, which could potentially supply the country’s energy needs for 60,000 years, according to a declassified geological survey.
233 thorium-rich zones identified across China, with an estimated one million tonnes at Bayan Obo.
Thorium-based nuclear reactors provide a cleaner, more efficient alternative to uranium, offering 200 times more energy output.
China is developing the world’s first thorium molten-salt reactor (TMSR) in the Gobi Desert, expected to be operational by 2029.
Thorium is 500 times more abundant than uranium-235, with lower nuclear waste and meltdown risks.
China aims to construct 24 new nuclear plants by 2030, strengthening its pursuit of energy independence.
