I've only caught the tail end of some discussion on the presence of
tritium in material from the Earth's core and allusions to its
indicating fusion occurs in the core.  I seem to recall that there is a
branch in uranium and thorium fission which leads to production of
tritium.  Is this point irrelevant?
