um..................... i think no :)
Yes, that is where we get the nuclear material for our reactors, by mining it from the Earth. Though it does not occur in high concentrations, we have to concentrate it ourselves.
USA, Canada, France, UK, Russia. Also Australia(mining only)
the reson there is mining in Australia is because Australia is rich in minerals and it is a goob way to make money.
Applications of uranium: - nuclear fuel for nuclear power reactors - explosive for nuclear weapons - material for armors and projectiles - catalyst - additive for glass and ceramics (to obtain beautiful green or yellow colors) - toner in photography - mordant for textiles - shielding material (depleted uranium) - ballast - and other minor applications
none, australia is not a nuclear power
Australia's economy depends mainly on mining and agriculture. Tourism is also important.
Iron ore mining in Western Australia happened in 2009.

Radioactive material refers to substances that emit radiation spontaneously, while nuclear material is any material that can undergo nuclear reactions such as fission or fusion. Essentially, all radioactive material is nuclear material, but not all nuclear material is necessarily radioactive.
Plutonium is not commonly used in gold mining. Plutonium is a highly radioactive element that is used in nuclear reactors and nuclear weapons, but it is not typically associated with gold mining processes.

Most uranium now comes from Australia, but there are many other sources. See www.world-nuclear.org and look for Uranium Mining as a subject.
