• Thorium(IV) iodide (ThI4) is an inorganic chemical compound composed of thorium and iodine. It is one of three known thorium iodides, the others being thorium(II) iodide and thorium(III) iodide.
• CANDU reactors can also breed fuel from the more abundant thorium. This is being investigated by India to take advantage of its natural thorium reserves.
• 232Th is the only primordial nuclide of thorium and makes up effectively all of natural thorium, with other isotopes of thorium appearing only in trace amounts as relatively short-lived decay products of uranium and thorium.
• Simple combustion of thorium in air produces thorium dioxide.
• For a list of experimental and presently-operating thorium-fueled reactors, see thorium fuel cycle#List of thorium-fueled reactors.

• The ionium/thorium method of dating assumes that the proportion of thorium-230 to thorium-232 is a constant during the time period that the sediment layer was formed.
• Another alternative to fast-neutron breeders are thermal-neutron breeder reactors that use uranium-233 bred from thorium as fission fuel in the thorium fuel cycle.
• During his time at the University of North Carolina, Baskerville experimented with thorium and published his results in 1901.
