Uranium was discovered in 1789 (as an oxide in the mineral pitchblende) by Martin Heinrich Klaproth, studying a mineral sample from Joachimow. The pure uranium was obtained in 1841 by Eugene Melchior Peligot.
Uranium was discovered (as an oxide, in pitchblende) by Martin Heinrich Klaproth in 1789.
Uranium was discovered in 1789 by Martin Heinrich Klaproth who named it after Uranus
Uranium was disvovered (as an oxide) in 1789 in Germany by Martin Heinrich Klaproth studying minerals; the mineral pitchblende was from Jachimow, now in Czech Republic and from Johanngeorgenstadt, now in Germany. The laboratory of Klaproth was in Berlin.
Uranium was discovered (as an oxide) in 1789 in Germany by Martin Heinrich Klaproth; but the mineral pitchblende was from Jachimow, now in Czech Republic and from Johanngeorgenstadt, now in Germany. The laboratory of Klaproth was in Berlin. In 1841 Eugene Melchior Peligot obtained uranium as a pure metal.
In 1789 Klaproth discovered a new mineral; he make a confusion between the element and mineral and considering pitchblende the element named this uranium.In 1842 Peligot showed that this mineral is an oxide and separated uranium as a chemical element, a metal.
In pitchblende from Joachimow (now in Czech Republic), 1789
Martin Heinrich Klaproth in 1789, as an oxide. In 1841 Eugene Melchior Peligot isolated uranium as pure metal.
Martin Klaproth was a chemist who had discovered the 92nd element, Uranium. ;) ♥

Uranium was discovered in 1789 by German chemist Martin Klaproth, who extracted it from the mineral pitchblende. Klaproth named the new element after the planet Uranus, which had been discovered just a few years earlier.
Martin Klaproth discovered uranium in 1789 while analyzing pitchblende, a mineral that contained an unknown element. He named the element uranium after the newly discovered planet Uranus. Klaproth's discovery contributed to the field of chemistry and the understanding of elements.
Martin Klaproth did not discover nuclear energy, he discovered the atoms uranium, zirconium, and cerium. The discovery of nuclear energy is credited to several people, including Albert Einstein and Marie Curie.

Martin Heinrich Klaproth, in 1789.
Uranium was discovered by Martin Heinrich Klaproth, a German chemist, in the mineral pitchblende (a mix of uranium oxides) in 1789. Klaproth confused the oxide with the metal. In 1841 the French chemist Peligot isolated uranium as a pure metal element. Henry Becquerel (also a Frenchman) discovered the natural radioactivity of uranium in 1896.
In 1789 Martin Heinrich Klaproth discovered an uranium oxide. In 1841 Eugène-Melchior Péligot obtained the first pure uranium metal.
