A. uranium is a rare metal.

B. once we use the Earth's supply of uranium, there will not be any more.

Hello!

The answer is: A. Uranium is a rare metal

Why?

Since nuclear energy itself isn't non-renewable, the metal used to create it is non-renewable. Uranium (U-235) is a very rare metal that can not be reused after the nuclear energy process.

According to scientific reports, there is enough Uranium (U-235) to produce nuclear energy for about 5,700 years, using conventional nuclear energy plants.

Have a nice day!
