It is relative easy to obtain uranium; the preparation of plutonium is more difficult and extremely dangerous.

Is uranium a non metallic metal?
Uranium is not a mineral, but a metal. For more info, go to periodictable.com
What is most lethal actinium or uranium?
Actinium is more dangerous than uranium.
How do you get pure actinium?
From Wikipedia "Actinium is found in trace amounts in uranium ore, but more commonly is made in milligram amounts by the neutron irradiation of 226Ra in a nuclear reactor. Actinium metal has been prepared by the reduction of actinium fluoride with lithium vapor at about 1100 to 1300°C."

Who do you think is exposed to more dangerous levels of radiation the uranium miner or worker at the fuel processing plant?
The external irradiation from uranium is not so dangerous; but the internal irradiation after inhaling powders or liquid aerosols is very dangerous. Note that the decay chain of uranium contain radium and radon, more radioactive than uranium. The respect of working rules is extremely important.
Can anybody sell uranium?
No, because it can be extremely dangerous, even used in a nuclear weapon. The uranium trade is made under the control of International Atomic Energy Agency Safeguards. Uranium is not so dangerous. Lead, cadmium or mercury are, for example, more dangerous. Now nuclear weapons have plutonium as fissionable material, not with uranium.

Which material type is more dangerous plutonium 239 or uranium 235?
Plutonium is more toxic and radioactive.
Are uranium plutonium and hydrogen dangerous?
1. Uranium is a possible polluting agent of the natural environment. 2. Uranium is a toxic and a radioactive chemical element. 3. Uranium release radium and radon. 4. Radioactive wastes are dangerous and need to be isolated. Plutonium: the same characteristics, but it is more toxic and radioactive. Hydrogen: it is a cause of severe explosions.
Are trantulas more deadly than spiders?
Tarantulas are spiders and they are not poisonous, but if they bite it will be painfull. They aren't more deadly no, but I know the Red Black Spider and the Brown Recluse to be quite dangerous.
Is plutonium more powerful then uranium?
Plutonium is more dangerous: the specific activity is greater, the critical mass is smaller, the chemical toxicity is greater.
