What else can I help you with?
What are the prices for analytical grade uranium oxide e.g of assay 99.9999 percent?
For NBL 0,99975 % uranium: 1 230 US $ for 4 grams.
Most nuclear power plants use what as a nuclear fuel?
Most nuclear power plants use enriched uranium as a nuclear fuel. Uranium-235 is the most commonly used isotope for nuclear fission reactions in nuclear power plants, where the uranium atoms split, releasing energy.
Which products does Uranium use?
Uranium is an element, it does not 'use' any products.
What isotope of uranium is used as fuel in a candu reactor?
Candu reactors have traditionally used natural uranium, which contains 0.7 percent U-235, which is the fissile isotope that produces all the nuclear fission energy. Proposals have been made that Candus could use fuel that has been discharged from light water reactors and might still contain about 0.9 percent U-235, or could even use fuel made from depleted uranium (mostly U-238) together with fissile plutonium available from dismantled nuclear weapons, but I don't think such proposals have reached the stage of implementation. For one thing, Canada doesn't have any nuclear weapons, so it would require some fuel manufacture to be set up in the US to make this fuel, or to utilise US spent fuel. There is plenty of this in US storage but no route for using it to make Candu fuel, which is of different dimensions and assembly details. However this might conceivably be done in the future.
How does URANIUM contribute to the ecomomy of the US?
Uranium contributes to the economy of the US primarily through its use in nuclear power generation, which provides a significant portion of the country's electricity. This creates jobs in the nuclear energy sector, contributes to energy security, and reduces greenhouse gas emissions. Additionally, uranium mining and processing operations also support local economies in regions where these activities take place.

What percent of uranium is used in Wisconsin?
See www.nrc.gov for a list of nuclear plants in different US states

How many uranium percent at U3O8?
The uranium oxide U3O8 contain 84,8 % uranium.
What percentage of the uranium that you use comes from within the US?
Probably 10 %.
How much uranium does the us use each day?
approx. 70 tonnes.
Is most of the uranium that you use found in the US or in foreign countries?
United States buy from other countries an important percentage of the necessary uranium.
Which uranium isotope is onley 0.7 percent of natural uranium and is the fissile part?
Uranium 235 is 0.7 percent of natural uranium and is fissile
Is depleted uranium 40 percent more radioactive than natural uranium?
Depleted uranium is approx. 60% less radioactive than an equivalent mass of natural uranium.
What is percent by mass and percent by volume?
Percent per mass example: uranium concentration in granite is approh. 4 mg/kg. Percent per volume: uranium concentration in ocean water is approx. 4 micrograms/L.
Does uranium contains more than 90 percent of one compound?
Uranium is a chemical element, not a compound.
What are the fuel sources for nuclear power plant?
Natural uranium has about 0.7 percent U235, this has to be increased to about 4 percent for use in natural water moderated reactors. The obtaining of uranium from mining and refining is described in the document linked below
