Phosphate rock mining is the process of extracting phosphate rocks from the ground for use in fertilizer and other products. The process involves locating phosphate deposits and then extracting the phosphate ore using various methods, such as open-pit mining, underground mining, and in situ leaching. The mined ore is then processed to create phosphate fertilizer and other products.

Phosphates are essential for life, and production of phosphoric acid is a critical part of producing enough food for humanity. We depend on an old industrial process that uses phosphoe rock inefficiently and produces hazardous phosphogypsum. Novaphos was founded in 2008 as JDCPhosphate to develop his vision for a solid-phase carbo-thermal reduction technology. The company renamed itself in 2019 to signify its transition from technology development to commercialization.
