Uranium of uraan is een scheikundig element met symbool U en atoomnummer 92. Het is een metallisch grijs actinide en het element met de hoogste atoommassa dat van nature op Aarde voorkomt. Natuurlijk uranium bestaat grotendeels uit de isotoop uranium-238 en voor 0,72% uit uranium-235. Bij verrijkt uranium is dit laatste percentage hoger, bij verarmd uranium lager.
