China discovers 'limitless' energy source that could 'power the country for 60,000 years'

China has discovered an 'endless' energy source that could supply enough fuel to power the country for 60,000 years, geologists in Beijing have claimed.

The Bayan Obo mining complex in Inner Mongolia, an autonomous region of northern China, could contain enough thorium to supply China's household energy demands 'almost forever', a national survey reportedly found.

This slightly radioactive element can be used to create a type of nuclear power station called a molten-salt reactor which could provide enormous quantities of energy.

Scientists estimate the mining complex could yield 1 million tonnes of thorium if fully exploited, according to The South China Post, which obtained a declassified report of the survey.

The study has claimed that thorium resources in the country's mining waste 'remain totally untouched' and if properly extracted could be large enough to end the worldwide dependence on fossil fuels.

Researchers further allege that five years' worth of mining waste from an iron ore site in Inner Mongolia contains enough thorium to meet American energy demands for over 1,000 years.

The report comes as China, Russia and the US race to make nuclear energy a key power source.

You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists

While all the foolish so-called WOKE nations struggle with unreliable, failing, super-expensive, windmills and solar-power, China blazes ahead with limitless nuclear power leaving all the WOKE in their dust. How long will it take until all the NET ZERO nations realize they were duped and played for fools by China?

If it’ll only last 60,000 years, then it isn’t limitless.
