Rock phosphate is the raw material used to manufacture ICL phosphate fertilizers. The rock phosphate comes from the fossilized remains of ancient marine life found in rock deposits, which is mined. This rock phosphate is processed to create water-soluble compounds that make the phosphorus available to plants as a nutrient.
