The study reinforces the fact that the environmental performance of the fertilizer raw materials industry has improved over recent decades, although challenges remain.
Phosphorus is the most critical element for crop production and a key component in phosphate-based fertilizers required to produce large quantities of food crops to feed the world's ever-increasing population. Fertilizer production relies heavily on phosphate rock, whose production was modelled to peak around 2033, and reserves depleted within 100 years. …
While the financial aspect is undoubtedly important, mines should not compromise the environment. Striking a balance between profitability and resource preservation is crucial for sustainable phosphate mining. This study is a continuity of the efforts made by the Moroccan phosphate mining company to preserve phosphate and be more sustainable. The

Phosphate holds a critical role as a vital, limited, strategic, and irreplaceable resource. Throughout its production chain, residual phosphate can be found in waste streams. This study aims to enhance production efficiency by exploring methods to limit residual phosphate presence in waste stocks. I …
Conclusions Sustainability in phosphate mining and processing can be achieved by focusing on the following three areas: ξ Increasing P 2 O 5 recovery in the mining and …
Africa's phosphorus-deficient soil is a paradox: Although Morocco is the world's second-largest phosphorus producer, after China, the majority of Africa is starved of this critical nutrient.
The global use of phosphorus fertilizers more than doubled between 1961 and 2019, increasing from 5 kg P ha −1 to 11 kg P ha −1.Zou et al. studied this period, identifying distinctive trends ...
The report examines the context and state of sustainability reporting in the large-scale mining sector, with a specific focus on what governments have done to enhance the transparency of the sector. Among …
Morocco is a significant player in the phosphate rock and fertiliser sectors, with the country controlling over 70% of the world's known phosphate rock reserves. Mining beyond phosphate rock is limited to small base and battery metal deposits that fall well behind other well-known mining regions.

Countries in Africa already involved in the mining of phosphate include Morocco, Senegal, Togo, Algeria, and Tunisia. Smaller quantities of untapped phosphate rock deposits are believed to also exist in countries like Mali, Niger, and Nigeria, which can be valuable for local agricultural activities if exploited.
Phosphate rocks are a vital resource for world food supply and security. They are the primary raw material for phosphoric acid and fertilizers used in agriculture, and are increasingly considered to be a potential source of rare earth elements. Phosphate rocks occur either as sedimentary deposits or igneous ores associated with alkaline rocks. In both cases, …
A new model can predict conservation outcomes for sustainable phosphate mining. Phosphorus plays a vital role in the world's food production; it is a mineral that is a key ingredient in most fertilizers and is found predominantly in the form of phosphate rock. In order to keep up with the demand of crops that must be grown for our planets ...
The Baobab phosphate project is a high-grade phosphate rock project located approximately 140km from Dakar, the capital city of Senegal, West Africa. Baobab Mining and Chemicals Corporation (BMCC), an 80% owned subsidiary of Avenira, fully owns the project.
In terms of renewable energy, Endeavour Mining has identified opportunities to introduce solar power at its Houndé mine in Burkina Faso and at Sabodala Massawa in Senegal, which have the tandem benefit of reducing carbon emissions as well as the mines' power costs.
