✦ Synopsis

UHDSG, 2007. — 11 p.

Uranium is a strategic resource that is the basis for both nuclear power and nuclear weapons. Nuclear power accounts for around 16% of the world’s electricity and uses uranium as a fuel to drive steam turbines.
The large scale use of uranium started around 1940 with the Manhattan project and the development of nuclear bombs, but later started to be focused more and more on power generation with nuclear reactors.
