Uranium (as uranium dioxide, uranium carbide, uranium metal, uranium alloys, etc.), plutonium and thorium.
Uranium is usually the element of choice for nuclear fuel. We also like to recover the uranium-235 isotope for fuel if we can. Some reactors use mostly U-235 for fuel, and some use a bit of U-235 in with U-238 for fuel.
Nuclear Fission
The use is to produce electricity from a nuclear reactor plant
Yes, uranium is the most important nuclear fuel now.
Yes, it can be used in both bombs and reactors. It is excellent fuel for either one.
Uranium fuel.
Gold is a very stable element and would be no use as nuclear fuel
Predominantly enriched uranium, but some reactors can use natural uranium.
Fossil-fuel power stations, hydroelectric power stations and nuclear power stations.
Well, they mostly use uranium in power stations to make electricity. PS: What the hell is othen??

Uranium
We mine uranium for use as a nuclear fuel. The uranium is separated from ore, and may undergo enrichment to separate out the lighter U-235 nuclide from the heavier U-238 one.

For a start, it's the most common element in the Universe. Also, it's the element that most stars use as nuclear fuel, for their enormous power output.
Uranium. Most current power reactors use Uranium enriched to 3% Uranium-235.
Yes, they are widely used for data gathering and display to the operators, also for reactor simulators, and assessment of the physics state of the reactor and its fuel cycling requirements.
