The same way the other minerals did.
Also uranium is a very dense metal, in the earth's early history when it was all molten, uranium and other dense metals sank towards the center of the earth. Therefor there is now far more uranium down inside the solid nickel-iron core than there is in all the crust of the earth. The radioactive decay of this uranium in the core and mantle keeps them hot and drives all the volcanoes, hot springs, plate tectonics, etc. happening on the surface of the earth.

Yes, uranium is extracted from mines.Many uranium mines exist around the world.
How deep is uranium in the ground?
5000 feet down
Do protons hit uranium causing it to split?
Uranium is splitted under thermal neutronsbombardment.
How do you sell uranium?
Uranium trade is possible only under very severe and controlled conditions.
What is the difference between uranium Marbles and marbles?
Uranium marbles contain up to 3 % uranium; these marbles are fluorescent under an UV light.
