technically. uranium emits radiation which is harmless if we don't absorb to much of it but too much and we either die or our offspring and/or we have genetic mutations

Another answer:

You should avoid Uranium. In addition to being weakly radioactive, Uranium IS a toxic metal. Normal functioning of the kidney, brain, liver, heart and other systems can be affected by uranium exposure. Uranium is also a reproductive toxicant. Exposure to uranium and its decay products, especially radon, are widely known.

Also note that finely divided uranium metal presents a fire hazard because uranium is pyrophoric; small grains will ignite spontaneously in air at room temperature.
