Oklo plans Groves-2 Forge isotope pilot for lutetium-177

On October 13 Oklo said it will advance Groves-2 Forge, a pilot meant to irradiate targets and process isotopes, starting with lutetium-177, using experience from the Groves test reactor. The company tied the plan to DOE's Nuclear Energy Launch Pad, whose August 24 selection named Oklo but did not describe this facility. Oklo said a move to commercial scale still requires the appropriate NRC licenses.
