It isn't formed in the earth. It was formed in stellar fusion reactions within supernovas, scattered when those stars exploded, and swept up when the solar system condensed. The elements were then distributed by volcanic eruptions from concentrations inside the earth after it formed, and are found in different minerals and rock structures.
