> your sole sourcing via wikipedia IMHO the referenced articles adequately concisely describe the facts, and provide sources. > there's literally an inexhaustible supply in the Ocean We try to obtain uranium from seawater since the 70's, with (as with industrial breeder reactors) grand announcements from time to time. Net result: "pumping the seawater to extract this uranium would need more energy than what could be produced with the recuperated uranium".

Your supply and demand link appears broken, perhaps you meant: https://www.world-nuclear.org/information-library/nuclear-fuel-cycle/uranium-resources/supply-of-uranium.aspx https://www.world-nuclear.org/information-library/nuclear-fu... In any case that's a secondary source, you're better off using the primary: Uranium 2022: Resources, Production and Demand (aka U Redbook) https://www.oecd-nea.org/jcms/pl_79960/uranium-2022-resources-production-and-demand https://www.oecd-nea.org/jcms/pl_79960/uranium-2022-resource... although at 560+ pages it's perhaps doubtful you'd read that. It's worthy of note that broadscale coarse uranium exploration gets "thrown in" with any airbourne geophysical survey that typical runs magnetic + radiometric sensors at the same time (saves fuel costs + 256 channel ground emissions give geologic structure via K + Th + U patterns ) https://www.ga.gov.au/ausgeonews/ausgeonews200812/radiometrics.jsp https://www.ga.gov.au/ausgeonews/ausgeonews200812/radiometri...
