...most advanced, Petratherm, plans to drill its own well near South Australia's Flinders Ranges later this year and produce commercial amounts of power before Geodynamics does. Petratherm, with projects in Spain and interests in China, already has an agreement to supply 7.5 MW of power to the Beverley uranium mine, 11 km from its drilling site.

Skeptics don't believe that the North will come clean in the material handed over Thursday about its alleged uranium enrichment program.

Then again, the image of the country created by the movie couldn't be more appallingly crass. But it's all relative. Kazakhstan's neighbors include: Uzbekistan, which regularly makes news...
