> The reactor (a single one!) uses something like 40% of the world's current annual production of beryllium. If all the world's estimated resource of Be is used to make these reactors, it would be enough for reactors producing just 1% of world primary energy demand. That's crazy. I guess if the design works out we can start casting about for a beryllium replacement.
