S>To Improve the economy of manufacture it is proposed to produce metallic uranium by the reduction of a uranium compound with a more electropositive metal carrying out the reduction in a reducing atmosphere and subsequently during the period when the melt cools to maintain an atmosphere of argon. A suitable method of production is reacting uranium tetrachloride or the double salt of uranium tetrachloride and sodium chloride with an alkali metal such as sodium or an alkaline earth metal such as calcium or magnesium, or with aluminum.
