Fossiliferous peloidal phosphorite, (4.7 cm across), Yunnan, China. Phosphorite, phosphate rock or rock phosphate is a non- detrital sedimentary rock that contains high amounts of phosphate minerals. The phosphate content of phosphorite (or grade of phosphate rock) varies greatly, from 4% to 20% phosphorus pentoxide (P 2 O 5).
Deposits which contain phosphate in quantity and concentration which are economic to mine as ore for their phosphate content are not particularly common. The two main sources for phosphate are guano, formed from bird or bat droppings, and rocks containing concentrations of the calcium phosphate mineral, apatite.
Phosphate rock was listed as a critical raw material in May 2014 (European Commission, 2014) that should be a push for P recovery from wastewater and other renewable sources. Phosphorus resources are expected to deplete by the end of the 21st century (Christel et al., 2014).
Phosphate rock, a non-renewable geological reserve, has been mined to meet agricultural needs for P fertilizer and a variety of other P needs (Cordell et al., 2011). More than 90% of phosphate rocks are used as feedstock for commercial fertilizers and animal feed (Cordell et al., 2009; USGS, 2011).
The most important sources of phosphorus are phosphorite or phosphate rock. Phosphate rock consists of the mineral apatite, an impure tricalcium phosphate, mixed with clay and other elements. Elemental phosphorus is made commercially in several different forms called allotropes.
