Phosphate mining is strip-mining that clears the land in sections. First, 30 to 40 feet of "overburden" and then 15 to 25 feet of phosphate-containing layer called the matrix are dredged away with a drag line. What's left is a landscape that looks otherworldly — a far cry from Florida's lush natural lands. Dark, dusty soil forms hills ...
