The yellowcake uranium used to bomb japan during wwii was mined just north of me. it was taken by tug and barge south to a railhead for refining in the states. the only obstacle to the barging was the big set of rapids on the river adjacent to where i live. so, they used to portage around the rapids and through my town. one of the tugs - the radium king - is now in the local museum. it made for a great band name back in the day, and has been my online handle ever since.
