What is the source of thorium?

Thorium is primarily sourced from the earth's crust, often found in minerals like monazite and thorite. It is typically extracted as a byproduct of rare earth element mining or during the production of other metals like uranium.


When or if eventually Thorium emerges as important nuclear fuel will be possible and commercially just to mine monazite from rocks not from sands Thank you?

Monazite sand is far more common than large monazite rocks and large beds of monazite don't exist. Not all monazite contains thorium.


Which mineral is in Monazite sand?

Monazite sand contains the mineral monazite, which is a phosphate mineral that is rich in rare earth elements such as cerium, lanthanum, and neodymium. These rare earth elements are important for various high-tech applications including electronics, magnets, and renewable energy technologies.


How much does monazite sand cost per ton?

The Price of monazite sand varies based on its constituents, especially the percentage of Thorium and Cerium. For example, with a Thorium content of between 0.5% and 3%, Monazite sands can cost between $8 to $12 per gram from many African Countries.


Is thorium found in yellow sand?

Thorium is typically found only in dark-colored heavy-mineral sands. Mineral bearing sand is classified by specific gravity as either light or heavy, with heavy mineral sands having a specific gravity of greater than 2.9. Many of the heavy mineral sands are dark colored and include ilmenite, rutile, magnetite, sphene, and garnet. Thorium is found primarily in the heavy mineral. monazite, which is ofter yellowish-brown or greenish- brown. A minor amount of thorium may also be in the heavy mineral, zircon, which is often white of yellowish in color. Because monazite and zircon are heavy minerals and are generally less abundant than ilmenite in a deposit, they are typically found in the zones of dark or black colored minerals. It is possible for thorium-bearing minerals to be distributed throughout a light-colored sand.


Is zircon ilmenite sillimanite tungsten found in beach sands of kerala?

Yes, zircon, ilmenite, and sillimanite are commonly found in the beach sands of Kerala. However, tungsten is not typically present in significant quantities in these sands. These minerals are important sources of valuable elements and are often extracted through beach sand mining operations.
