Experimental data on geoneutrinos allow to admit that masses of U, Th and K in the Earth can be up to mU = 1.7 · 1017 kg, mTh = 6.7 · 1017 kg and mK/mEarth ~ 2%. These values correspond to intrinsic Earth heat flux in ~300 TW. The most part of this flux goes up in rift zones as a heated gases. Argo Project results and the measurements of the Moon intrinsic heat flux support the existence of such a big flux. So large of U, Th, K abundances were predicted by Adjusted Hydridic Earth model.
