Hmmmn.

I thought the original "natural" fission reactor happened in some "very highly concentrated" natural U238/235 rock in the Belgium Congo a little before WWII.

Hello, Robert! Is it still going, or did it shut down (or get excavated)?

I recall hearing about that as well. I don't know whether it was the "original" but last I heard it was still operating IIRC.
