Phosphate ores are mostly produced in sedimentary rocks, but also in metamorphic and igneous rocks, and with some exceptions, the phosphorus in the mineral is always in the form of orthophosphate, the principal mineral of phosphorus being apatite. Phosphorus is an important chemical material and an essential element for the growth of crops. Industrial phosphorus must be extracted in large quantities from phosphate ores and used to make yellow phosphorus, red phosphorus, phosphoric acid, phosphate fertilizer, and phosphates. The English name is PHOSPHATEROCK. Molecular formula: 3Ca32- CaR2. China is relatively rich in phosphate resources, with proven resource reserves ranking 3rd in the world after Morocco and the United States. The five provinces of Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan, Hubei and Hunan are the main phosphate resource storage areas in China, with reserves amounting to 9.86 billion t, accounting for 74.5% of the country's total reserves.

China's phosphate ore output was 10.312 million tons in November 2017, down 11.4% year-on-year, according to the CBSI Big Database. China's phosphate ore production from January to November 2017 was 110.407 million tonnes, down 0.1% year-on-year.
