Ocean floor bedrock is basalt, which has much lower U/Th content than granite. Granites are continental rocks. Geologically, U and Th have been concentrated over the billions of years by about a factor of 1000 in the minerals that have accumulated in continents. Were this not the case, fission power would be completely impractical. |
