If you have tried importing a key pair in Thunderbird, you must have
been able to export the pair first?!
To export a key pair from GnuPG, run these commands:
gpg --export -a EMAILOFKEY > public.asc
gpg --export-secret-keys -a EMAILOFKEY > secret.asc
where you put in the email associated with your key pair instead of
"EMAILOFKEY".
Then you can import the files public.asc and secret.asc in
Thunderbird.

Conversely if you export a public key and a secret key from
Thunderbird, eg to files tb_public.asc and tb_secret.asc, you can
import them into GnuGP using:
gpg --import tb_public.asc
gpg --import tb_secret.asc
