  Uranium ore is almost entirely U-238, but there is a small fraction of it that is U-235, and radioactive. Some of the mines in northern Saskatchewan have ore so hot that they have to cut it with waste rock for it to be able to go though the mill.

    Imagine you are just a dude in a cold place and one day you find a very hot rock. Magic! Is that how the first jacuzzi was invented? Did he just called everyone in the village for a hot bath?

      The first jacuzzis were probably using geothermal energy, but more likely volcanic heat than uranium directly.
