What element and plutonium are used in nuclear reactors?
Uranium is the main fuel used, but in some countries a mixture of uranium and plutonium is also used (MOX fuel)
What is plutonium abundance earth's crust?
Only a trace of plutonium is naturally found in the earth's crust. And it is always found with uranium because it is made by uranium's spontaneous fission, neutron release, and the subsequent neutron capture by another uranium nucleus to form the plutonium atom. Plutonium is not formed by the death of a star in a super nova like uranium is. Uranium is the heaviest element formed in that event. That's why there isn't any plutonium around as an ore. Just the trace amounts found with uranium. We're lucky there isn't a lot of plutonium around. It is highly toxic owing to its hightly radioactive nature.
