Uranium is a resource.

Summary

Uranium (U) is a resource and one of the localised earth elements. It is used as fuel for the starship's Launch Thruster.

Game description

Local mineral extract, typically found in large deposits or extracted from common minerals after inspection with an Analysis Visor.

Typically found on planets with a radioactive environment.

Source

In Mineral deposits on Irradiated biomes.
Can be found in Metal 'Fingers'.
Also available from some Galactic Trade Terminals, but the purchase price is much higher than the nominal value.

Uranium can be refined using a Refiner with the following ingredients:

Phosphorus ×2 + Ferrite Dust ×1 → Uranium ×1 ("Environmental Element Transfer", 0.36 sec./unit output)
Phosphorus ×2 + Pure Ferrite ×1 → Uranium ×1 ("Environmental Element Transfer", 0.36 sec./unit output)
Crystallised Helium ×1 + Ferrite Dust ×1 → Uranium ×1 ("Loosen Bonds", 0.36 sec./unit output)
Crystallised Helium ×1 + Pure Ferrite ×1 → Uranium ×2 ("Loosen Bonds", 0.18 sec./unit output)
Crystallised Helium ×1 + Magnetised Ferrite ×1 → Uranium ×3 ("Loosen Bonds", 0.12 sec./unit output)
Gamma Root ×2 + Salt ×1 → Uranium ×1 ("Floral Titration", 0.36 sec./unit output)
Radon ×1 + Di-hydrogen ×1 → Uranium ×1 ("Catalyse Radiation", 0.16 sec./unit output)
Radon ×1 + Ferrite Dust ×1 → Uranium ×1 ("Metal Enrichment", 0.36 sec./unit output)
Radon ×1 + Pure Ferrite ×1 → Uranium ×2 ("Metal Enrichment", 0.36 sec./unit output)
Radon ×1 + Magnetised Ferrite ×1 → Uranium ×3 ("Metal Enrichment", 0.36 sec./unit output)
