Uranium Mining and Milling Wastes: An Introduction
URANIUM MINES Most uranium ore is mined in open pit or underground mines. The uranium content of the ore is often between only 0.1% and 0.2%. Therefore, large amounts of ore have to be mined to get at the uranium.

Reproductive and developmental toxicity of natural
Although the biokinetics, metabolism, and chemical toxicity of uranium are well known, until recently little attention was paid to the potential toxic effects of uranium on reproduction and development in mammals.
Nuclear Fuel Supply - Nuclear Energy Institute
Before its use in a reactor, uranium must undergo four processing steps to convert it from an ore to solid ceramic fuel pellets. These processes are: mining and milling, conversion, enrichment and fabrication.
Uranium mining in the United States - Wikipedia
Uranium mining in the United States produced 3,303,977 pounds (1,498,659 kg) of U 3 O 8 (1271 tonnes of uranium) in 2015, 32% lower than 2014's production of 4,891,332 pounds (2,218,671 kg) of U 3 O 8 (1881 tonnes of uranium) and the lowest US annual production since 2005.
Yellowcake - Wikipedia
Yellowcake (also called urania) is a type of uranium concentrate powder obtained from leach solutions, in an intermediate step in the processing of uranium ores.It is a step in the processing of uranium after it has been mined but before fuel fabrication or uranium
