Providing rare insights into the history of South Africa's secretive nuclear industry, this book explains how South Africa turned to the development of a nuclear program and weapons of mass destruction as a result of its abundance of uranium--a byproduct of its gold mines. South Africa's current plans to revitalize its nuclear industry are judged against the background of an international nuclear industry that has not been able to solve basic problems of excessive cost, the threat to human health and safety, and long-term environmental contamination. An illustrated explanation of basic nuclear concepts and the nuclear fuel chain makes the history and arguments easy to follow.

A subarctic mine on the far eastern shores of Great Bear Lake provided Canadian uranium for the bombs detonated over Japan in August 1945. However, a complete history of Canada's involvement in the Manhattan Project and the development of the atomic bomb has been thwarted by restrictions on classified documents.

Capturing for posterity the vanishing world of uranium mining, this candid memoir recounts the author's adventures and misadventures working underground in 1970s New Mexico, the "Uranium Capital of the World." Detailed descriptions of the tools, methods and hazards of uranium mining, along with character sketches and entertaining anecdotes, provide a colorful glimpse of a bygone way of life--drilling, blasting and mucking the sandstone of the Grants mineral belt in the San Juan Basin.

Originally published in 1983, this book presents both the technical and political information necessary to evaluate the emerging threat to world security posed by recent advances in uranium enrichment technology. Uranium enrichment has played a relatively quiet but important role in the history of efforts by a number of nations to acquire nuclear weapons and by a number of others to prevent the proliferation of nuclear weapons. For many years the uranium enrichment industry was dominated by a single method, gaseous diffusion, which was technically complex, extremely capital-intensive, and highly inefficient in its use of energy. As long as this remained true, only the richest and most technically advanced nations could afford to pursue the enrichment route to weapon acquisition. But during the 1970s this situation changed dramatically. Several new and far more accessible enrichment techniques were developed, stimulated largely by the anticipation of a rapidly growing demand for enrichment services by the world-wide nuclear power industry. This proliferation of new techniques, coupled with the subsequent contraction of the commercial market for enriched uranium, has created a situation in which uranium enrichment technology might well become the most important contributor to further nuclear weapon proliferation. Some of the issues addressed in this book are: A technical analysis of the most important enrichment techniques in a form that is relevant to analysis of proliferation risks; A detailed projection of the world demand for uranium enrichment services; A summary and critique of present institutional non-proliferation arrangements in the world enrichment industry, and An identification of the states most likely to pursue the enrichment route to acquisition of nuclear weapons.

These are but a few of my recollections of the Cotter Mill from its 1958 Fremont County, Colorado inauguration to the year 2000 when General Atomics obtained the mill, four sections of industrial and rural real estate, assets and obligations for the sum of $1,000,000, or the value of a couple of neighboring homes. Contrary to popular opinion, early Cotter was not welcomed with open arms by Canon City society. As a matter of fact early employees were openly referred to as, "The unwelcome foreign element." Individual and collective efforts changed the atmosphere, especially when Cotter conveyed bargain basement priced water to a beleaguered private golf course. (29) Lynn Boughton was Cotter's Assistant Chief Chemist from 1958 to 1964 and Chief Chemist until he resigned in 1979. Lynn was my husband. We were in love and happily married for fifty-two years. We were also business partners, best friends, and sounding boards. On the subject of Cotter, Lynn talked-I listened; especially when our real estate was included in a Super Fund site, when his illness appeared related to nuclear exposure, and even more closely when his illness was proven to be indisputably caused by working with nuclear material; an illness that took his life in 2001. My memory is reasonably good, but certainly not flawless. My comments should not be taken as fact but as probably not too far wrong. After Lynn's death, I donated thousands of his documents to The University of Colorado Boulder Archives. ***** The future rests on the past but new ownerships, new administration, new bureaucracies always believe they start with a "clean slate" ignoring the past as they persist in repeating the same mistakes. In dealing with nuclear materials, mistakes affect, not only fortunes, but the health and property of neighbors and future generations. Deyon Boughton
