Curium and NRG PALLAS extend collaboration in the supply of essential medical isotope to hospitals
More Than 50 Million Diagnosis Annually
Technetium-99m is used for hospitals and patients. More than 50 million nuclear medicine procedures are performed each year, with technetium-99m used in more than 80% of these diagnosis. The multi-year agreement between NRG PALLAS and Curium is essential to ensure the continuity of medical isotope supply.
Peter Luijten, CEO NRG PALLAS, said 'These isotopes are important for both doctors and patients. The demand for technetium-99m remains strong and our close collaboration with Curium ensures hospitals will continue to be supplied with this isotope for years to come.'
Frank de Lange, General Manager of Curium Netherlands, said 'The stable, global supply of medical isotopes to patients with specific health conditions is critical for accurate diagnosis before the treatment cycle of the patient begins. This partnership guarantees that supply.'
About technetium-99m from molybdenum-99
Patients undergoing a SPECT scan in hospitals with indications such as cardiovascular diseases or various cancers receive an injection of a tracer—a radioactive substance. The radioactive component, technetium-99m, is derived from the molybdenum-99 manufactured by Curium from low-enriched uranium irradiated by NRG PALLAS.
The irradiation process to produce molybdenum-99currently takes place in the High Flux Reactor (HFR) in Petten, the Netherlands, which operates around 260 days per year. As planned, this role will be taken over by the PALLAS-reactor, expected to be operational from 2030 onwards, which will offer an extended operational window of approximately 300 days per year. NRG PALLAS has implemented an extensive Long Term Safe Operation program for the HFR to maintain the safety and reliability of the reactor until the transition of irradiations to the PALLAS-reactor.

The Window to Build Real Wealth May Be Reopening—And This Presentation Shows Where to Look
Washington, D.C., Aug. 10, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Former CIA advisor and economic strategist Jim Rickards highlights in a briefing what he calls a 'generational opening' —a rare window where younger Americans may have access to something their parents and grandparents lost long ago: a tangible path to wealth. 'You don't need a trust fund or a tech job. You need to know where the country is shifting—and get there first.' Millennials and Gen Z: The Lost Opportunity Generations? For years, headlines have painted a bleak picture: younger generations saddled with debt, priced out of homes, locked out of traditional wealth-building paths. But Rickards argues this narrative may be about to flip—not because of tech, but because of land and resources. 'It's about the raw materials and physical building blocks of the future.' Why the Next Era of Wealth Will Be Built on the Ground—Not the Cloud Rickards says a shift is happening behind the scenes—one where physical assets like copper, lithium, and land are becoming more valuable than ever due to surging demand from AI, EVs, and advanced infrastructure. He calls it a rare convergence of industry, innovation, and raw supply—and believes those who recognize it early could be at the front of a generational wealth wave. 'It's not just tech that's booming—it's the physical inputs that make tech work.' America's First Real Onramp in Decades for the Working Class The presentation highlights a dramatic shift from the digital-only economy of the 2010s to what Rickards calls a 'resource-based recovery'—one that could create real jobs, real industries, and real opportunity in forgotten parts of the country. Why the Elites May Miss It Entirely Rickards points out that many institutional investors may ignore these trends—not because they're wrong, but because the opportunities are too small for their capital to scale. That's what gives regular Americans, especially younger ones, the chance to move first. 'Buffett couldn't meaningfully invest in some of these companies if he wanted to… but you can.' About Jim Rickards Jim Rickards is a former advisor to the CIA, Department of Defense, and U.S. Treasury, with over five decades of experience guiding high-level strategy. He is the editor of Strategic Intelligence , a monthly briefing focused on emerging economic shifts, overlooked trends, and the real forces shaping America's future.

NEW YORK, Aug. 10, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — WHY: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, reminds purchasers of securities of Petco Health and Wellness Company, Inc. (NASDAQ: WOOF) between January 14, 2021 and June 5, 2025, both dates inclusive (the 'Class Period'), of the important August 29, 2025 lead plaintiff deadline. SO WHAT: If you purchased Petco securities during the Class Period you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement. WHAT TO DO NEXT: To join the Petco class action, go to or call Phillip Kim, Esq. at 866-767-3653 or email [email protected] for more information. A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than August 29, 2025. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation. WHY ROSEN LAW: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources, or any meaningful peer recognition. Many of these firms do not actually litigate securities class actions, but are merely middlemen that refer clients or partner with law firms that actually litigate the cases. Be wise in selecting counsel. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company at the time. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs' Bar. Many of the firm's attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers. DETAILS OF THE CASE: According to the lawsuit, throughout the Class Period, defendants made false and misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) Petco's pandemic-related tailwinds were unsustainable, as was its business model of selling primarily premium and/or high-grade pet food; (2) accordingly, the strength of Petco's differentiated product strategy was overstated; (3) defendants downplayed the true scope and severity of the foregoing issues, the magnitude of changes needed to rectify those issues, and the likely negative impacts of their mitigation strategy on Petco's comparable sales metric; (4) accordingly, defendants overstated Petco's ability to deliver sustainable, profitable growth; and (5) as a result, defendants' public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages. To join the Petco class action, go to or call Phillip Kim, Esq. at 866-767-3653 or email [email protected] for more information. No Class Has Been Certified. Until a class is certified, you are not represented by counsel unless you retain one. You may select counsel of your choice. You may also remain an absent class member and do nothing at this point. An investor's ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff. Follow us for updates on LinkedIn: on Twitter: or on Facebook: Attorney Advertising. Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome. ——————————- Contact Information: Laurence Rosen, Esq. Phillip Kim, Esq.
