EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Throughout the nuclear age, the proliferation of nuclear weapons has depended on the 
spread of "dual use" nuclear technologies and materials. Despite the close relationship 
between civil nuclear technology and materials and nuclear weapons proliferation, the 
production of nuclear weapons usable material will soon increase beyond the levels 
produced during the entire Cold war.

The 1990s will see a large-scale campaign to legitimize the trade in nuclear weapons 
materials - particularly plutonium - produced in commercial reprocessing facilities. 
Authoritative evidence shows that so-called civil grade plutonium is able to be used 
either directly or following further processing in nuclear weapons. Likewise, 
plutonium fuel (mixed uranium/ plutonium oxide) MOX can also be used in 
nuclear weapons.
