Nuclear fusion power will probably require vast quantities of enriched lithium – but we aren’t making nearly enough, and ...

Limitless power from nuclear fusion may be a step closer following the accidental discovery of a new process to supply the isotope lithium-6, which is vital to providing fuel for a sustainable ...

Is there a cleaner and more environmentally friendly way for scientists to create lithium-6, which is a primary component in creating nuclear fusion fuel? This is what a recent study published in Chem ...

called lithium 6. But the traditional process for sourcing lithium 6 involves using the toxic metal mercury and causes major environmental damage. It has been banned in the U.S. since 1963.

The company aims to re-establish US leadership in isotope enrichment, focusing initially on lithium-6 and lithium-7 for nuclear fuel cycles. The funding includes an $8m seed round co-led by MaC ...

Lithium-6 is essential for producing nuclear fusion fuel, but isolating it from the much more common isotope, lithium-7, usually requires liquid mercury, which is extremely toxic. Now, researchers ...

The rays are known to contain large quantities of the element’s two stable isotopes: lithium-6 and lithium-7. Some researchers have suggested that a portion of the lithium-7 could be the missing ...

Perth-based Lithium Energy announced on Wednesday it had secured a 6 150-ha package of mineral claims in Utah, in what it is ...

Reuters, the news and media division of Thomson Reuters, is the world’s largest multimedia news provider, reaching billions ...

In the wild, there are two stable isotopes: lithium-6, which has three protons, three neutrons, and three electrons; and lithium-7, which has an additional neutron. Each isotope has its own ...
