The primary source of helium on earth is its recovery from natural gas deposits in North America, principally the US. Some helium might be recovered from natural springs, though. This is because helium is formed in some geologic formations because of the alpha decay of radioactive materials in certain rocks. Alpha decay, as you will recall, is the release of an alpha particle, which is a helium-4 nucleus from a decaying nucleus. There are geologic formations around the world where favorable conditons might allow the economical recovery of helium. This includes India.
In Eastern India, Bihar, Assam and Orissa have favorable geologic formations where helium might be recovered from springs. The same is true for the west coast of India, namely Ratnagiri, Thane, Colaba and Surat. Similar geological structures in the Himalayan Belt, specifically Jamunotri (Uttaranchal), Gangotri and Monikaran (Kullu Valley, Himachal Pradesh) may also be considered for helium recovery.

Minerals found in Japan?
The minerals that are found in Japan include sulfur, coal, lead, limestone, and zinc. There are not very many mineral deposits in the country.
What compound is commonly found with helium?
Helium is generated as a decay product of some radioactive materials and tends to collect in the same type of geological structures that trap natural gas, so methane might be a possible answer.

Where can helium be found on earth?
Helium can be found in underground deposits in the earth. Helium can also be found in stars and other planets. The helium underground - and extracted from natural-gas - is a by-product of the natural radioactive decay of uranium, though is far too stable to be radioactive itself. It also occurs in very small amounts in the atmosphere. Since it is the first element to be formed in stars by nuclear fusion from the primary hydrogen "fuel", it is abundant throughout the Universe.
Is helium natural or synthetic?
natural, but can me made synthetically by nuclear fusion of hydrogen isotopes.
