磷灰岩是磷元素的一个有经济价值的重要来源,矿产资源局(BMR)对磷灰岩的研究已有多年的历史。本文将对矿产资源局对磷灰岩研究的历史及将继续研究的内容进行概述。 1943年,对澳大利亚东南部的磷酸盐产出情况进行了调查。 1955年,矿产资源局(BMR)、新西兰地质调查局(the NeW Zealand GeologicalSurvey)和英国国外地质调查局(the British OVerseas Geological Survey)对澳大利亚、新西兰及本国领土的磷酸盐资源做了进一步评价。1957年,矿产资源局开始对与北部地方(Northern Teritory)北海岸相隔的岛屿进行调查。在此之后的两年中,对印 Phosphorus limestone is an economically important source of phosphorus, and the Mineral Resources Agency (BMR) has been studying the phosphogypsum for many years. This article will outline the history of the research on the apatite by the Bureau of Mineral Resources and the content of continuing research. In 1943, phosphate production in the southeastern part of Australia was investigated. In 1955, the Mineral Resources Board (BMR), the NeW Zealand Geological Survey and the British OVERSEAS Geological Survey further evaluated the phosphate resources in Australia, New Zealand and their territories. In 1957, the Bureau of Mineral Resources began investigating islands separated from the northern coast of the Northern Territory. In the two years since then, India
