Consider the following statements: 1. India does not have any deposits of Thorium. 2. Kerala's monazite sands contain Uranium. Which of the statements given above is/are correct?

1. Statement 1: India possesses some of the largest deposits of Thorium in the world, primarily found in monazite sands along its coasts, particularly in Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Odisha, and Andhra Pradesh. The statement that India does not have any deposits of Thorium is incorrect. 2. Statement 2: Kerala's monazite sands are exceptionally rich in Thorium. While they may contain trace amounts of Uranium, their primary significance is for Thorium reserves. The statement that they contain Uranium (implying significant amounts or as the main component) is misleading and generally considered incorrect in this context. Monazite is primarily a phosphate mineral containing rare earth elements and Thorium. 3. Neither statement is correct.
