The use of "depleted" Uranium is another example of the Siamese twinning of the nuclear power industry to the huge weapons programs and the legacy of thousands of these obscene devices having been produced with all the extremely refined non-fissile Uranium 238 laying in storage, with all the problems this caused with containment of the contamination plumes of this heavy metal in any of its components.
Truly huge amount of otherwise, dangerous, useless by product of mining and refinement processes for a .3% recovery from the pure mixed isotope product. Solution:
use as a kinetic/piroporic/chemical/radiological weapon for the military arm of the nuclear industry.
It can't be stopped by normal armor and a murderous knock down as it literally burns with even the air on its way down range to produce another product on impact.
A final irrevocable solution to DNA in the effected regions, a ceramic microfine dust permeating the air and waters; that will radiate until the Earth is dark.
Nothing can contain these growing plumes of contamination.
Nothing.
