Bubuk monasit, sebuah mineral fosfat torium dan tanah jarang, adalah sumber utama dari torium dunia

Program tenaga nuklir tiga tahap India diformulasikan olejh Homi Bhabha pada 1950an untuk mengamankan energi bebas jangka panjang negara tersebut, melalui penggunaan cadangan uranium dan torium yang ditemukan di pasir monasit wilayah pesisir India Selatan. Fokus utama dari program tersebut adalah memungkinkan cadangan torium India untuk digunakan dalam memenuhi kebutuhan energi negara tersebut.^[1]^[2] Torium sangat menarik bagi India, karena hanya memiliki 1–2% dari cadangan uranium global, tetapi salah satu bagian terbesar dari cadangan torium global sekitar 25% dari cadangan torium dunia yang diketahui.^[3]^[4]^[5]^[6]
