Abstract It is well known that the rare earth elements (REEs) incorporated in the crystal lattice of sedimentary apatite are commonly derived from ambient seawater. This study documents, for the first time, the possibility of mixed origin of apatite REEs present in the Egyptian Western Desert phosphorites, known as the Abu-Tartur phosphorites, one of …

Phosphate rock (PR) is considered the cheapest P fertilizer. Phosphate rock sources may be of igneous or sedimentary origin. Results: In Egypt, the natural phosphate rock is located in Sebaiya (Nile Valley), Safaga (Red Sea), and Abu Tartur (Western Desert). The higher the organic matter contents in soil, the better dissolution of the PR.
