john... "close"
Sorry, being a nuke guy the "rods" are the control mechanism to make sure the "core" of the reactor doesn't go critical. The fuel or "enriched source" is what gets depleted from the reaction. This is the material that is depleted and later milled into Armor piercing rounds. And most "source material" is considered depleted at %65 yield.

Not busting you or anything, just making sure the semantics are correct.
Of course, all the beer right now doesn't help
