At least two intermetallic compounds of iron and uranium were identified: U 6 Fe and UFe 2. Small amounts of uranium can drastically lower the melting point of iron and vice versa. UFe 2 reportedly melts at 1230 °C, U 6 Fe at 805 °C; a mixture of these two can have melting point as low as 725 °C, a mixture of iron and UFe

Uranium's concentration in the Earth's crust is (depending on the reference) 2 to 4 parts per million, [11] [22] or about 40 times as abundant as silver. [17] The Earth's crust from the surface to 25 km (15 mi) down is calculated to contain 10 17 kg (2 × 10 17 lb) of uranium while the oceans may contain 10 13 kg (2 × 10 13 lb). [11]
