Phosphate rock in Egypt is composed primarily of apatite as the main mineral in composition while non-phosphatic minerals usually include quartz, calcite, dolomite, and clay minerals (El-Anwar et al. 2019). Apatite mineral is insoluble and so the mineral cannot be applied directly as a fertilizer except under conditions of acidic soils.

Phosphate Deposits

Apatite is slowly soluble in neutral or alkaline waters, and its solubility increases with increasing acidity, decreasing hardness, and decreasing temperature. Apatite may survive rock weather­ ing for a time to form a phosphate-rich residuum, but it breaks down under prolonged exposure. Some of it may be redeposited

The major and primary phosphate mineral at Eppawala is Apatite. Studies revealed that the exploitable phosphate deposit is a secondary formation on an Apatite-bearing carbonate rock. Subsequent weathering has caused relative accumulation of Apatite and other secondary minerals to create the present form of the phosphate ore.

Apatite | Earth Sciences Museum | University of Waterloo

Apatite is identified by the chemical formula Ca 5 (PO 4). It forms in hexagonal crystals and is a rock phosphate mineral. Apatite can exist in many different forms, along with other minerals, as long as the base of apatite calcium (Ca 5) and phosphorous (PO4) exist together. There are three common forms of apatite that appear in nature.
