Afghanistan has now no uranium mines.
Uranium-235 is found in nature at about 0.7% concentration to uranium-238.
Approx. 2 700 000 tonnes, up to 2011, in all the world.
Mining of uranium in 2001 totaled 1,300 tons, 15 percent less than 2000 and 45 percent less than 1998.
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.
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.
None. A pellet of uranium contains uranium, not coal.
Uranium is not used at home.
Something on the order of 2500 tonnes of gold is mined each year.
The majority of nuclear reactors use uranium as nuclear fuel.
Uranium is the element being referred to here. It is named after the planet Uranus, the 7th planet from the sun. Uranium is a nuclear fuel source that is highly efficient; just one pound of uranium can produce as much energy as 1500 tons of coal.
