It's deposits occur in extensive layers, which cumulatively covers 10.000 km² of the Earth's crust Rock phosphate can be solubilized to produce wet-process phosphoric acid or smelted to produce elemental phosphorus, being approximately 90% of the produced rock used as fertilizer and animal feed supplements.
Rock Phosphate Handling. Rock phosphate must be stored and transported away from some other fertilizers like ammonium phosphates and incompatible compounds to avoid nutrient losses. Rock phosphate can be transported by rail, truck and ship.
Rock Phosphate Production. Raw materials and the respective production processes employed in the manufacturing of Rock Phosphate are listed below.
