The NRC regs seem very restrictive, how have you been able to get your thorium nitrate? http://www.energyfromthorium.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=1638 Also, the half-life of the radon produced in the thorium decay chain is really short (much less than the radon-222 in the uranium decay chain)...why does it concern you?

You have a "critical mass;-)" building there including the compounds you have extracted. I have a source made by New England Nuclear that has the same "use only as authorized by AEC" even though it was Ba-133 that contained less than even the exempt quantity allowed today. Does the Urea have a nice, pleasant odor? Too bad all the chemical companies are shying away from anything radioactive, but if anyone needs Thorium, Strem Chemical still carries it.....for the time being anyways.
