Thorium Power has technological patents on methods to combine thorium with plutonium and Uranium in rods that can be used in current reactors. The methods they use have been proven to work in russian reactors. This is not a thorium cycle business. It is an alternative fuel methodology for currently active reactor models. It is a very viable alternative to MOX, permitting economical burning of Plutonium stockpiles---and allowing nuclear powers to meet the stockpile reduction quotas of past treaties.

It really has nothing to do with the Thorium Cycle and conceptual reactors to burn thorium, per se.

Spend some time going back over the posts. It is all here. You just need to put in a little effort to understand what it is the company is doing.
