Tritium, a radioactive isotope of hydrogen, is not found in significant quantities in the Earth's crust because it is highly unstable, with a half-life of about 12.3 years. It is primarily produced in the atmosphere through cosmic ray interactions and in nuclear reactions, but it decays quickly, preventing its accumulation in the crust. Additionally, tritium is typically found in trace amounts in water, formed by interactions with cosmic rays, but not as a stable element in geological formations.
