Request a QuotationProduct Overview
Rock Phosphate is a naturally occurring mineral rich in phosphorus, mined from sedimentary and igneous deposits around the world. It is the primary raw material for phosphate fertilizers such as DAP, MAP, TSP and SSP, as well as phosphoric acid. Finely ground rock phosphate can also be applied directly to acidic soils as a slow-release phosphorus source.
