Could helium 3 be mined?

According to the study, mining it would be a profitable undertaking: the energy produced by the helium-3 would be 250 times greater than that needed to extract this resource from the Moon and transport it to Earth, where the lunar reserves of helium-3 could supply human needs for centuries.

Will helium-3 increase the price of fusion fuel?

This does not take into effect the increase in the price of helium-3 that would occur once it is used in the creation of the fusion process based on the new ion fuel that will power CFS’s new tokamak, once it is commercially available. Currently, the only company mapping helium-3 fields on the far side of the Moon is China.
