Uranium is a chemical element with symbol U and atomic number92. It is a silvery-white metal in the actinide series of the periodic table. A uranium atom has 92 protons and 92 electrons, of which 6 are valence electrons. Uranium is weakly radioactive because all its isotopes are unstable (with half-lives of the six naturally known isotopes, uranium-233 to uranium-238, varying between 69 years and 4.5 billion years). The most common isotopes of uranium are uranium-238 (which has 146 neutrons and accounts for almost 99.3% of the uranium found in nature) and uranium-235 (which has 143 neutrons, accounting for 0.7% of the element found naturally). Uranium has the second highest atomic weight of the primordially occurring elements, lighter only than plutonium. Its density is about 70% higher than that of lead, but slightly lower than that of gold or tungsten. It occurs naturally in low concentrations of a few parts per million in soil, rock and water, and is commercially extracted from uranium-bearing minerals such as uraninite.
Bikstok Røgsystem is a Danishdancehall band consisting of Eaggerman (Dwayne McFarlane), Pharfar (Søren Schou) and Blæs Bukki (Lasse Bavngaard). The band is one of the first to perform reggae and dancehall in Danish.
Their debut and only album Over stok og sten was very successful, received very favourable reviews, and entered the Danish album chart as number one in February and made Gold by June 2005.
From 2006 until 2012, the group have been more or less disbanded, but it still occasionally reunited for one-off performances.
From 2013 they got together in a reunion to prepare a new album. The result was the 2015 album Uranium with the album being credited to Bikstok rather than the full name Bikstok Røgsystem.
The HatchetDrillProgram is expected to test for extensions of known uranium mineralization and new targets based on previously identified anomalous pathfinder elements and hydrothermal alteration.
