Iran Still Producing Uranium Metal
(AP/CNN) Iran is still converting uranium in a process that can be used to make nuclear weapons as it exploits a loophole in a recent deal it made to freeze such activities, diplomats said Tuesday. Tehran is still turning tons of raw uranium into uranium metal and said it would continue to do so until February. The metal is a precursor of uranium hexafluoride - that can then be used to produce weapons-grade uranium.
