Ten reactors that had produced weapons grade plutonium have been shut down.

In Russia, we no longer manufacture weapons grade uranium a programme to cease production of weapons grade plutonium is now under way.

Even the plutonium inside the reactor is what's called reactor grade plutonium, which isn't suitable.

We are concerned at the accumulation of vast quantities of weapons grade plutonium from civilian reactors, even by some non nuclear States.

You can run these off they're really hungry, they really like down blended weapons pits, so that's highly enriched uranium and weapons grade plutonium that's been down blended.

Perhaps the most effective way to avoid the grave consequences of nuclear weapons is to address the problem at its source by prohibiting the production of weapons grade plutonium.

There is serious concern in States members of the Union about recent cases of illegal transfers and smuggling of plutonium and uranium, sometimes of weapons grade quality.

The threat of the spreading of smaller nuclear weapons is compounded by the availability of weapons grade nuclear material produced from plutonium and highly enriched uranium and the relative lack of proper commercial safeguards.

quot Welcoming the unilateral steps taken by the nuclear weapon States for the cessation of the production of highly enriched uranium for nuclear weapons and for the shutting down of reactors producing weapons grade plutonium,

They built this during the Manhattan project to make plutonium for nuclear weapons.

Sixth, huge quantities of weapons grade plutonium will be removed from dismantled warheads as a result of the implementation of the START agreements, along with hundreds of tons of highly enriched uranium.

The Russian Federation is taking steps to prepare for the implementation of the programme of weapon grade plutonium disposal.

Plutonium

Weapons grade uranium has not been produced in our country since 1989.

The scope of the treaty should certainly include all weapons grade materials.

Plutonium is...

Plutonium just is.

They by and large said, We're going to go the plutonium route. One of the reasons why was they had developed a great deal of understanding about plutonium from the weapons program.

Plutonium alloys can be produced by adding a metal to molten plutonium.

(f) The conditions governing the use of weapons grade fissionable materials removed from nuclear weapons in the process of their elimination

It was later clearly stated in the Dawn newspaper on June 14, 2000, that this particular nuclear reactor at Khushab and its reprocessing plant were generating between 8 to 10 kilograms of weapons grade plutonium per year, dedicated for military use.

Plutonium 238 is different than plutonium 239, the stuff we use in bombs.

Let me enumerate some of them. The scope of the treaty should provide for a ban on future production of weapons grade uranium and plutonium for nuclear weapons purposes a ban on assistance in or encouragement of production of these materials by other States prohibition of the transfer of fissile material from the civilian to the military cycle for nuclear weapons purposes.

Plutonium produced at the remaining three reactors which generate heat and electricity has not been used for nuclear weapons since 1994.

Finland supports an international agreement on a ban on the production of highly enriched uranium and plutonium for nuclear weapons purposes.

I'm not the biggest fan of plutonium because I'm not crazy about the plutonium fast breeder reactor, but there's nothing good or bad about plutonium.

Plutonium has a metallic taste.

Plutonium and other nuclear material

This time, they knew exactly what the huge magnets were for to produce weapons grade nuclear materials.

And that is that Iran will achieve that nationalist pride by making enough weapons grade fuel, through research, so that they could show that they know how to make weapons grade fuel, but not enough to actually build a bomb.

Seventh, the illegal transfer and smuggling of nuclear material of weapons grade quality are cause for growing concern.

This is plutonium containing less than 80 per cent plutonium 238, highly enriched uranium (HEU) and uranium 233.

Over the entire 40 years of operations, the site produced about of plutonium, supplying the majority of the 60,000 weapons in the U.S. arsenal.

6. India welcomed the call by President Clinton for an international agreement to ban production of plutonium and highly enriched uranium for weapons purposes.

Plutonium 239 is virtually nonexistent in nature.

This was the guy who discovered plutonium.

The process yielded minute amounts of plutonium.

Look at plutonium, wow, big target, right?
