You’d still have over 10% of the sample remaining as U-235.
Also, lead was there in some minuscule quantity when the box was sealed, the only thing that’s changing is the proportion between the two.

If Earth has been around 4B years, do that mean there was a relative shitload of uranium when it formed? And that’s why lead is so common?
