Biggest uranium deposit ever detected though a little bit hard to come by The observation of geo-neutrinos at the Borexino detector at the Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso (Italy) proves that a significant fraction, if not the majority of the geothermal heat power of the Earth of 40 Tera-Watt (TW = 10 12 W) is generated from the decay of uranium and thorium.

Not because it is the best though, just because of the pure nostalgia of running around there farming ore reminds me of Classic WoW where everyone ran around and farmed Thorium. Unlike Iron, the ore just before Mithril, the extra stones that you get when mining are pretty much completely worthless.

Uranium ore can be mined from open pits or underground excavations. The ore can then be crushed and treated at a mill to separate the valuable uranium from the ore. Uranium may also be dissolved directly from the ore deposits in the ground (in-situ leaching) and pumped to the surface.

168 THORIUM (Data in metric tons of thorium oxide (ThO 2) equivalent unless otherwise noted) . Domestic Production and Use The world's primary source of thorium is the rare-earth and thorium phosphate mineral monazite. In the United States, thorium has been a byproduct of refining monazite for its rare-earth content.

Based on import data through July 1996, the unit value of imports of thorium ore and concentrates (monazite), was $406 per metric ton gross weight. The average value of thorium compounds, imported during the same time period, was $58 per kilogram. Worldwide demand for thorium-bearing rare-earth ores remained low.

Why can 1 ton of Thorium produce as much energy as 200 tons of Uranium? MSRs can have thermal or fast spectrums and can use thorium or uranium, so the comparison of thorium in a closed-cycle MSR to uranium in a once-through LWR is a bit disingenuous but the numbers for MSR breeder vs LWR are approximately right (a factor of 100, or probably

Thorium enrichment in iron ore is known in iron (Fe)-REE-thorium-apatite (FRETA) deposits, similar to the FRETA deposits in Mineville, NY, Pea Ridge, MO, and Scrub Oaks, NJ. World Resources Thorium resources occur in geologic provinces similar to those that contain reserves. The leading share is contained in placer deposits.

Thorium was discovered in 1829 by J.J. Berzelius in Stockholm. Thorium is a dark grey, radioactive metal of which the principal source is the ore, monazite, a complex phosphate of thorium, uranium, cerium and lanthanides. The metal is soft and ductile and is extracted by precipitation as the hydroxide, along with cerium and uranium; separation
