    There are two main source of earth's heat 1) primordial heat and 2) radioactive heat. Radioactive heat is the primary source since the core of earth contains too much amount of radioactive elements and decay of radioactive elements produces large amount of heat so 80% of earth internal heat is produced by radioactive decay.
