This process allows the valuable phosphate content of the ore to be recovered as crystalline trisodium phosphate.

Apatite samples taken from the mines were described as course, hard lumps with a white yellowish color and an average of 85% phosphate content.

Algae and plant cultures grew well also on Mars meteorites because of their high bio-available phosphate contents.

Nitrate and phosphate content were excessive.

This has good agricultural properties due to the high nitrogen and phosphate content.

Its level of salinity tolerance is thought to be improved by soil with higher phosphate content, making guano enrichment particularly beneficial.

The largest use of minerals mined for their phosphate content is the production of fertilizer.

By contrast, the "abnormal glycogen" in Lafora bodies has an excessive phosphate content and branches at abnormally long intervals.

Very soon, coprolites were being mined on an industrial scale for use as fertiliser due to their high phosphate content.

The phosphate content is of enough quantity to warrant mining.
