The global dataset on phosphate mining and beneficiation covers worldwide production of phosphate rock (PR) at the level of phosphate mining and beneficiation complex. The objective is to gather complex-specific data on the P content of mined and beneficiated resource and on the recovery rates of beneficiation process. Phosphate mining and beneficiation complex refers to a phosphate ore deposit with adjacent mine(s) and beneficiation plant(s). See Introduction for details.
The “Global dataset on phosphate mining and beneficiation” is structured into 7 data frames:
mining_complexes
stores the general properties of individual phosphate mining complexesore
stores information on the P2O5 grade of orePR
stores information on the P2O5 grade of PRmineral
stores information on the P2O5 grade of mineralrecovery_mass
stores mass recovery ratesrecovery_mineral
stores mineral recovery ratessources
contains description of data sources, including their identifiers, references to source document(s), data relevance, data quality, and details on the performed data collection
