Phosphate Mining Infrastructure

This is what goes under the only bridge on the island. The phosphate is mined on the interior (Top Side) and is brought down by train to this area (there are many large rusting buildings behind these structures pictured above) where the material is crushed, screened, roasted and stored. A calcination plant removes all carbon and most cadmium (a polutant which also has made the fish in the Buada lagoon uneatable) from the phosphate.
