Diamond 1
The name derives from the planet Uranus, which in Roman mythology was "Father Heaven". Uranium was found to be first used in yellow-colored glass, which contained more then 1% uranium oxide, dating back to 79 A.D. found near Naples, Italy. The metal was first isolated in 1841 by the French chemist Eugene-Melchior Peligot, who reduced the anhydrous chloride with potassium. The German chemist Martin Heinrich Klaproth discovered the element in 1789 when he recognized an unknown element in the mineral pitchblende, following the German/English astronomer William Hershel's discovery of the planet in 1781.
Uranium was apparently formed in super novae about 6.6 billion years ago, a decay product of elements with higher atomic weight, which may have once been present on Earth or elsewhere in the universe. It occurs in most rocks in concentrations of 2 to 4 parts per million, and in much lower concentrations in seawater. Its radioactive decay provides the main source of heat inside the Earth, causing convection and continental drift.
