On 13 November 2026, the domestic Chinese phosphate rock market was broadly steady. Egyptian 25%, 26% and 27% P2O5 rock was quoted FOB at $56-58, $66-68 and $78-79 per tonne, and Jordanian 64-66 BPL rock at over $90 per tonne FOB Aqaba.
Chinese supply was reduced by safety and environmental curbs, while downstream demand was weak.
Weak Chinese demand combined with reduced domestic output leaves the phosphate rock market without a clear direction. Import price quotes from Egypt and Jordan give buyers a reference for phosphate feed-mineral costs.
