The Green Salt Project (also known as the "Project 1-11")〔(The New York Times - Breaking News, World News & Multimedia )〕 is an alleged secretive Iranian entity focusing on uranium processing, high explosives and a missile warhead design. The Green Salt Project derives its name from uranium tetrafluoride, also known as green salt, an intermediate product in the conversion of uranium ore into uranium hexafluoride — a toxic gas that can undergo enrichment or purification into fuel for nuclear reactors or bombs.〔(UN Calls US Data on Iran's Nuclear Aims Unreliable )〕 Uranium tetrafluoride has also been used as the source of metallic uranium for Magnox reactor fuel elements via chemical reduction. Since the International Atomic Energy Agency began investigating Iranian nuclear activities in 2002, the IAEA has discovered a series of clandestine nuclear activities, some of which violated Iran’s safeguards agreement with the agency.〔(Military linked to Iran nuclear program - World - smh.com.au )〕 The Green Salt Project is allegedly among these projects. ==Publicity== The Green Salt Project was initially brought to light by reports of a laptop computer in the CIA's possession which was supposedly smuggled out of Iran that contained a variety of information on Iran's alleged nuclear weapons program, from the design of underground testing facilities to schematics of nuclear missile warheads.〔(Strong Leads and Dead Ends in Nuclear Case Against Iran ), Dafna Linzer, Washington Post, 8 February 2006.〕 The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) referred to the green salt project on January 31, 2006.〔(Weaponization-Related R&D ), ISIS.〕〔(Implementation of the NPT Safeguards Agreement in the Islamic Republic of Iran ), GOV/2006/15, IAEA, 27 February 2006.〕
