Oh hey, Libya has 2.5 tons of uranium missing. -- (link) - budice Mar 15, 16:57 11
- Dammit Doc, we talked about this! -- nm - Marty McFly Mar 15, 17:07
- oh noes, not the yellowcake! -- nm - mafic Mar 15, 17:06 8
  - Is 2.5 tons a lot? (I'm being serious here) -- nm - ty97 Mar 15, 17:07 7
    - not a huge amount? like half a day's production for a decent-sized mine. -- nm - mafic Mar 15, 17:24
    - It's about 0.71% uranium. So about 35 pounds. -- nm - TWuG Mar 15, 17:14
    - Its like 5000 pounds! -- nm - decline Mar 15, 17:10
    - That's a great question - I have no idea how much of a reactor that could power once it was refined. But now I want to know. -- nm - Beryllium Mar 15, 17:09 3
      - like it's yellowcake, so no reactors, but if they converted it to fuel pellets somehow it could power some reactors (like CANDU) for a couple months? -- nm - mafic Mar 15, 17:18
      - “One ton of natural uranium can produce more than 40 million kilowatt-hours of electricity. This is equivalent to burning 16,000 tons of coal or 80,000 barrels of oil.” -- (link*) - znufrii, meh and problematic Mar 15, 17:13 1
        
        so many ebike charges -- nm - Beryllium Mar 15, 17:14
