If you are refering to the Depleted Uranium that is a by-product of fission reactions in nuclear power facilities, It is buried in various locations around the world. Usually in old, abandoned mines that have been extended far beyond their original depth.

This waste product will remain radioactive for some 10,000 - 50,000 years, or until a means is invented by which to dispose of it or render it harmless. (Whichever happens first!)

Until such a time it will remain buried, and new material will be buried with it.
