Helium-3 is extremely rare and highly valuable, trading at prices over 140,000 times higher than helium-4—more than $20,000 to $28 million per kilogram, depending on purity and market conditions. Its primary commercial applications are in:
Quantum computing and cryogenics (for ultra-low temperature cooling systems)
Neutron detection (important for nuclear security and scientific research)
Medical imaging (advanced MRI techniques)
Potential nuclear fusion fuel (aneutronic fusion, which produces minimal radioactive waste)

In summary, the presence of helium-3 (even in trace amounts) in a helium field can increase its commercial value enormously due to helium-3’s critical, advanced technological applications and global scarcity. Helium-4 deposits remain valuable but are a common commodity by comparison. If a deposit is primarily helium-4, it serves traditional markets; if helium-3 is present, it opens much higher-value, specialised markets. ***
