How much uranium-235 is typically found in uranium ore when it is mined from the ground?
Uranium-235 is found in nature at about 0.7% concentration to uranium-238.
How much uranium has been mined?
Approx. 2 700 000 tonnes, up to 2011, in all the world.
How much uranium was mined in 2001?
Mining of uranium in 2001 totaled 1,300 tons, 15 percent less than 2000 and 45 percent less than 1998.
How much uranium is left?
There are thought to be about 5 million tons of the grade of ore being mined now, typically 0.1 to 0.25 percent uranium oxide. So that represents 5000 to 12500 tons of uranium. This will keep the industry going for some years yet. Eventually lower grade ores will have to be mined which will be more expensive, but there is no reason to expect a shortage.
How much uranium is available?
Now (in 2015) the world economically reserves to be mined are approx. 6 000 000 t.Approx. 40 000 000 t could be a reserve for the distant future and at a higher price.Extraction of uranium from sea waters may be also a possibility for the future.

Is uranium toxic?
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 mutationsAnother 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.
