Uranium (chemical symbol U) is a naturally-occurring radioactive element, with atomic number 92. Uranium is commonly found in very small amounts in rocks, soil, water, plants, and animals (including humans). Uranium is weakly radioactive and contributes to low levels of natural background radiation in the environment.

Uranium-238 is the most common isotope of uranium found in nature. It is not fissile, but is a fertile material, it can capture a slow neutron and after two beta decays become fissile plutonium-239.
