I fully agree with it being yellow. By far, the most common isotope of uranium is uranium-238, which is indeed radioactive, but not dangerously radioactive. In this list, lead is listed as a yellow because it can give you heavy metal poisoning. In this scenario, the uranium would cause more damage to your body by damaging it as lead would (heavy metal poisoning affecting brain, kidneys, liver, etc) before the radiation would ever have an impact on your body.
But would it be elemental prior to licking or oxidized as usual? Because one is still significantly worse than the other and looking at lithium very much suggests elemental uranium!
Lithium is only yellow??
It’s literally medicine in small doses
Those are lithium compounds and not elemental lithium?
Good question
Medicinal lithium is a salt, not the raw metal.
Indeed
Uranium is only yellow for some reason

Depleted uranium is probably relatively safe to lick.
