Description

The book presents a new and comprehensive model for the development of phosphate sediments. Starting with geochemistry and including new methods in sedimentology (sequence stratigraphy), it results in an interdisciplinary approach to a resource system covering all fields of phosphate geology. For researchers, teachers and students alike the book offers a complete overview of the whole field including case studies of major deposits. Phosphorus in nature: What's this all about....Pages 1-8 Phosphate minerals and sediments....Pages 9-58 The processes: Phosphogenesis and phosphorite genesis....Pages 59-214 Phosphorite deposystems....Pages 215-239 Phosphorite deposystems through the Phanerozoic....Pages 241-257
