ABSTRACT:
Class III-B metal ores such as Thorium and Uranium oxides are reduced to the powdered metal state by mixing them with a hydroxide such as Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH), or others of the Classes I-A and II-A metal series, and sugar or starch, then heating the mixture until hydrocarbon fuel is produced and burns utilizing the oxygen of the ores for such combustion, then boiling the residue in water, flushing and rinsing it in same, further cleansing in hydrocarbon or alcohol solutions, again flushing and rinsing in water, drying, and screening the residue to metal powder.
