Iranian nuclear chief Ali Akbar Salehi says Iran is in talks with the IAEA to set a timetable "soon" for visiting its newly revealed nuclear facility.

Salehi says the facility is located in a mountain near Qom, and is close to a surface-to-air missile site, to protect it against attacks.

It's built of heavily reinforced concrete and is large enough to house 3 thousand centrifuges.

In talks in Geneva scheduled on Thursday, Salehi says Iran WILL discuss disarmament and non-proliferation, but NOT issues related to its nuclear rights.
