Depleted uranium company, International Isotopes Inc., eyes two Idaho sites

A small eastern Idaho company aiming to build a $55 million plant in the West to extract industrial gases from depleted uranium has narrowed its search to four sites, including two in Idaho.

International Isotopes Inc. http://www.intisoid.com/ Chief Executive Officer Steve Laflin said one of the Idaho sites is near Idaho Falls, where France’s Areva NC Inc. plans a $2 billion uranium enrichment plant. The other Idaho site hasn’t been disclosed.

The company also is considering sites in Lea County, N.M., where an Areva rival is building a separate uranium enrichment plant, and in nearby Andrews County, Texas.
