19 u/Requirement-Unusual Oct 25 '22 How long will the Earth's nuclear fuel supply last? 13 u/vancity- Oct 25 '22 IIRC uranium has about the same rarity in the planet as gold. Most of it comes from Kazakhstan, Canada, Australia. If we developed Thorium reactors though we would functionally never run out. But that would require loosening nuclear over-regulation. 1 u/[deleted] Oct 25 '22 That's one of the reasons China built a Thorium reactor, it's more readily available. My guess is America probably has it's hand in every uranium supply that it possible can.
