Thorite
Thorite named after the god Thor is a Thorium bearing silicate mineral and is radioactive ☢️. This sample was purchased from a friend who collected it at Kipawa Alkaline Complex Quebec. The Thorite in this case is altered due to metamictization where the radiation has damaged the crystals… read more

Nuclear fusion vs fission, and what that means for the future of electricity
Did you know there are two types of nuclear power? There is nuclear "fission" (what produces all current nuclear power by splitting uranium atoms) and "fusion" (which is how energy is generated in the sun). Nuclear fission is not a renewable energy because it needs uranium (which is limited) and… read more

Uraninite
You can see the cubic crystal faces on it. Uraninite is a uranium dioxide mineral UO2. From Fission mine Ontario Canada ☢️. Fission mine was operated in 1922 by a Radium corporation for cancer treatment. In the 1940s it became a uranium mine supplying the Manhattan project for world war 2.

Uranium or Thorium?
Thorium and the Future of Nuclear Energy Thorium Reactor, more abundant than Uranium and has a way less half-life. Can also use old Uranium wastes to recycle for Thorium reactions of 232 into 233 using an absorbed neutron from the wastes (fuel breeding), end result is a nuclear waste with a… read more

I had a theory about the origin of the universe
My universe cycle theory proposes that the formation of our universe was preceded by the end of a previous universe. In this theory, black holes have the capability to absorb one another, resulting in the merger of their enormous masses. As these black holes combine, an immense amount of matter… read more
