spawn a sprite on a UI in C#

Question

hello

So i have a slider handle going from left to right. I want a sprite to spawn where the handle of the slider is when the left mouse button was clicked. All I have is:

 using System.Collections;
 using System.Collections.Generic;
 using UnityEngine;
 using UnityEngine.UI;
 
 public class Axesmarks : MonoBehaviour {
 
     public Sprite woodCrack;
 
     // Use this for initialization
     void Start () {
         
     }
     
     // Update is called once per frame
     void Update () {
         if (Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0)){
         
         }
     }
 }

is there a way to do this?

Add an empty gameobject to the Slider Handle which will be the "SpriteHolder" place the spriteholders transform into the scripts SpriteHolder.

  public class Axesmarks : MonoBehaviour {
  
      public Sprite woodCrack;
      public Transform spriteHolder;
      // Use this for initialization
      void Start () {
          
      }
      
      // Update is called once per frame
      void Update () {
          if (Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0)){
          Instantiate(woodCrack, spriteHolder.transform.position, Quaternion.identity);
          }
      }
  }
