No, uranium is a finite resource (just like coal and oil, except it is a fossil of long dead supernovas not fossil of living organisms) that must be mined. Also only 0.72% of natural uranium mined is the fissionable type: uranium-235.
However by using reprocessing of spent fuel rods to extract the left over uranium, the plutonium and other long lived transuranic elements produced and making new fuel rods, nearly all the original uranium can be made use of; extending the life of nuclear power by more than a factor of 100 while at the same time significantly reducing the magnitude of the nuclear waste storage problem. Unfortunately just the idea of reprocessing scares some people more than the waste problem.

What is one advantage of nuclear power?
Nuclear power Gives almost infinite electricity. like the sun, it has nuclear fusion, and nuclear fusion is infinite power. we are not that far with technology. so we have nuclear separation. now i don't know if that's the correct English term, but separation too gives allot of cheap electricity. The advantage Of nuclear power is allot of cheap Energy.
