Uranium-238 is, along with uranium-235, one of the refined products of uranium ore when the ore is processed through a centrifuge. Uranium-238 is vastly more common than uranium-235, with a 99.3% chance of appearing after being processed. Both isotopes of uranium are the main ingredients for most components of nuclear power generation. Uranium-238 can also be extracted from used up uranium fuel cells using nuclear fuel reprocessing.
