@verstengenericks he is probably oversimplifying that its not a dangerous radioactive material in its current state

as i know that Uranium is a radioactive element. Is it safe to deal with it like this ?

Uranium is radioactive, there is no stable istopes of Uranium on earth. Depleted Uranium, is U-238, all the fissible U-235 is removed from the 238 atoms, but its still radioactive. It gives off alpha particles, but is about a million times less radioactive than Radium 226. RA-226 is so radioactive, it creates a blue glow from nitrogen in the area surrounding the Radium being ionized.

oh yeah, can i make a nuke with it?

@lemonsodumb I know that much. What I was wondering was what the process was to deplete it.
