Russia: Revolutionary Technology Can Turn Lead Into Gold

Russian scientists have discovered a revolutionary new technology that allows them to turn lead into gold biochemically – without the use of nuclear reactors, cyclotrons, and without using enriched Uranium and heavy water.  Scientists Tamara Sakhno and Viktor Kurashov were trying to figure out how to fuel a spacecraft using any element found in space, and accidentally stumbled upon a method of turning lead into gold – without harming the environment. Anonhq.com reports: Their technology and results are confirmed by the Russian Patent Office (Rospatent). Sakhno and Kurashov’s cost-effective technology uses simple elements such as uranium, thorium ore, and radioactive nuclear waste, to obtain valuable elements and isotopes used in bulk. These isotopes are used in energy, health care, and the aviation industry such as francium, radium, actinium, protactinium, americium, berkelium, californium, and other isotopes. During a press conference held in Genev, Kurashov explained the technology and the process in brief: “The first component used in the process is ore, or nuclear waste. The second component of the process is valuable valency metals such as vanadium, chromium, manganese, iron, cobalt, nickel, copper, zinc, and others. Either of these will do, but we tend to use iron as the least costly element. [...]
