Uranium is extracted from mines.
The technical process of recovering is long; but shortly: ore grinding, dissolving, filtering, separation of uranium with ion exchangers or by solvent extraction.

Where uranium is located and how you can recover it?

Uranium is typically found in deposits in the Earth's crust. It can be recovered through mining, either through open-pit or underground methods, depending on the specific deposit. Once mined, the uranium ore is processed to extract the uranium and produce yellowcake, which is a concentrated form of uranium oxide.

What is enriched uranium?

Enriched uranium is uranium that has had its U-235 isotope content elevated above what it would be when we refine natural uranium after recovering the metal from ore.We know that U-235 is the desired fissionable isotope of uranium, but it is the isotope U-238 that is present in over 99% of all the naturally occurring uranium we mine and recover. We have to put the uranium through a process to separate the U-235 from the U-238. As these two isotopes are chemically identical, it takes a mechanical process to separate them. After running the uranium through a process designed to take advantage of the difference in the mass of the two atoms, the industry will recover uranium with a very high percentage of the U-235 isotope, and this is called enriched uranium.If uranium is enriched to a point where there is up to about 20% U-235, it is low-enriched uranium. Above that 20% mark we see highly enriched uranium. Above about 85%, we call the product weapons-grade uranium. A link can be found below for more information.
