Where is uranium found?
Uranium was first discovered in silver mines in what is now the Czech Republic by a German chemist named Martin Klaproth. Uranium, a dense silver-white metal, is found abundantly in the crust of the earth. It’s also found in soil, rivers, the ocean, in the food we eat and even – in trace amounts - in human tissue. The largest uranium deposits are found in Australia, Kazakhstan and Canada. Only Canadian deposits contain high-grade uranium.
