Uranium
Uranium is an item that can be obtained by mining Radrock Uranium Ore. Uranium is radioactive, and simply having enough of it in the player's inventory can inflict the Irradiated effect for 1:30 seconds.
Obtaining
Mining
Radrock Uranium Ore mined with an iron pickaxe or higher drops 1 piece of Uranium. If the pickaxe is enchanted with Fortune, it can drop an extra piece per level of Fortune, with a maximum of 4 pieces with Fortune III. If Radrock Uranium Ore is mined with a pickaxe enchanted with Silk Touch, it drops the ore block instead.
Crafting
Uranium can be crafted from 9 uranium shards. 9 uranium can be crafted from one uranium block.
