The mining region was called the Ashley Phosphate Mining District more of an economic than a geologic label Mining was focused in modern West Ashley north of Highway 17 west of I 526 and west towards Bacons Bridge Road and North Charleston just across the Ashley River In this region the sediments dating to the Pleistocene last
Building on in depth research on cleaner production in phosphate mines scholars have achieved promising results For instance Wu et al 2022 explored clean processing technologies for phosphogypsum a by product of the phosphorus industry with the aim of guiding future by product development directions Pu et al 2021 investigated the current applications
The abandoned Monte Fresco rock phosphate mine in Táchira Venezuela was sampled to study the biodiversity of phosphate solubilizing microorganisms PSM Rhizosphere and bulk soils were sampled from colonizer plant species growing at a mined site where pH and soluble P were higher than the values found at a near by unmined and shrubby
To trace the origins of phosphate mining we must go back in time to England Suffolk in 1847 This was when the first documented commercial phosphate rock mining occurred sourced for fertiliser using pics and shovels Following on from this large scale mining kickstarted in the US South Carolina in 1868 before shifting locations due to the
The Benguerir phosphate mine remains in operation with some areas closed and the land restored whereas other areas contain piles or trash or are in the process of being exploited To properly carry out our tasks an area has been selected where the land has not been modified/amended after geomorphic reshaping Fig 1 b To assess the state
