Scientific paper

Direct precipitation of apatite in sea water upon addition of dissolved inorganic phosphate is inhibited by magnesium ions. In sea water and simulated estuarine solutions an amorphous calcium phosphate precipitate is formed. The amorphous calcium phosphate precipitate rapidly converts to apatite in Mg-free sea water through exchange of magnesium for calcium. No conversion was observed in normal sea water over an eight month experiment.
