The process of isolating polonium and radium from uranium ore is called "uranium ore processing" or "uranium enrichment." This involves a series of chemical and physical separation techniques to extract the desired elements from the ore.
Radium is an element itself. It was isolated by Marie Curie from Pitchblende, an ore of Uranium.
The first name was radium; some isotopes had in the past other names.
Radioactive yes, synthetic no. Radium is found in nature in very small trace amounts usually in uranium ore deposits.
