No. You need enriched uranium to make a bomb. The stuff in the ground doesn't do anything except give you cancer.

The best you'd get is some sort of very inefficient dirty bomb.

Natural deposits dense and enriched enough to sustain a chain reaction stopped doing so about billion years ago.

We learned about the enrichment process on Inorganic 1

All I remember is that it involves "yellow cake"

Don't be disheartened. A large bomb or collection of bombs could throw enough cancer-causing uranium dust from the deposit into the atmosphere to kill thousands or even millions of people over the course of a few decades.

Just bomb the people directly. Honestly this is why supervillains always fall. They come up with ridiculous inefficient plans. This reminds me of the time when the Nazis developed a weapon designed to kill people with the sound of an explosion instead of the explosion.

Just plain shooting James Bond isn't very good drama, and also the film would end rather abruptly.

Why doesn't want to be super villain friend just hypothetically nuke cherynoble

Between it's current state near the ground water and volatility it might even be worse hypothetically

I read that during the end of nuclear bomb testing, scientists realized there is a very small chance that the colliding particles could cause a chain reaction and destroy the planet we know.

I need to look it up again though.

No that definitely happened but it's questionable as to whether they sincerely believed it or if they were trying to get them to cancel the manhattan project.
