How do you mine helium on earth?

Helium is typically mined by extracting it from natural gas deposits underground. When natural gas is extracted, the helium is separated from the gas using a series of processing steps. Helium can also be extracted as a byproduct of some nuclear reactions.


Is toothpaste a renewable or nonrenewable resource?

Toothpaste is a nonrenewable resource because it is derived from a combination of natural and synthetic materials that are finite in supply and require energy-intensive processes to produce. Once these materials are extracted and used up, they cannot be replaced on a human timescale.


What element is extracted from oil and natural gas?

Most of the hydrogen used by industry, as rocket fuel, and for fuel cell powered cars is extracted from oil and natural gas. This actually makes the supposedly "clean" fuel cell powered car pretty much as polluting as ordinary cars (as far as carbon emissions are concerned). It would be much better if the hydrogen was extracted by electrolysis of water using electricity from nuclear power, hydroelectric, wind, etc. sources instead!
