Radioactive fuel (7)

I believe the answer is:

uranium

(Other definitions for uranium that I've seen before include "Radioactive element used for nuclear energy" , "Radioactive metal, atomic number 92" , "Radoactive element" , "Radioactive material" , "Mineral used in nuclear reactors" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
