Uranium is very common compared to silver (22-40 times more plentiful depending on source) and much more common than gold. Australia & Canada have the largest reserves of the element as well.

Iridium in contrast is the rarest solid non-radioactive element in the Earth's crust.

Now when comparing the abundance of elements in the universe, uranium is actually much rarer than iridium (which is more common than silver or gold).
