Phosphate Rock

The term phosphate rock (or phosphorite) is used to denote any rock with high phosphorus content. The largest and least expensive source of phosphorus is obtained by mining and concentrating phosphate rock from the numerous phosphate deposits of the world. Some phosphate rock is used to make calcium phosphate nutritional supplements for animals.

Phosphorus Fertilizer: The Original and Commercial Sources

Earlier the original source of phosphorus (P) fertilizer was bones; as time passes, the supply of P fertilizer will get exhausted. Today, rock phosphate is the only raw material in the form of P fertilizers. There are two types of rock phosphates: igneous and sedimentary; both have the same phosphate mineral, i.e., calcium phosphate of apatite …

Phosphate is a relatively low unit-value commodity. Therefore, most phosphate rock extraction operations tend to involve surface mining, large-volume extraction and reasonably low transport distances to major markets (Bartels & Gurr 1994). In comparison to many other mineral commodities, the demand for phosphate rock appears relatively predictable
