Tubing Down the River - Caught in the Rain - Ichetucknee Springs State Park - Fort White, Florida
Despite the rain, we had a great time tubing down the river at the Ichetucknee Springs State Park. We camped nearby at the Ichetucknee Springs Campground, and rented tubes from them. After a short drive, and a short hike, we were able to tube from the midpoint of the river all the way to the south take out. The entire float took about an hour and a half. We saw birds, butterflies, lots of turtles, fish and even some manatees on our float. We did not see any alligators, and the locals here will tell you they haven't seen any in this river in over 100 years. We had also planned to swim in the springs, but the pouring rain cut our adventure short. If you have time in the area, we highly recommend the river tubing and swimming in the springs. The blue hole is also located in this state park, which is a famous diving spring with a cave.

Huge Dragline in Action in Manatee County, Florida
Phosphate rock is usually found 15-50 feet beneath the ground in a mixture of phosphate pebbles, sand and clay known as phosphate matrix. The sandy layer above the matrix, called the overburden, is removed using electrically operated draglines. Equipped with large buckets, these draglines remove the overburden, placing it in the previously mined voids, and excavate the matrix, depositing it into a shallow containment area or slurry pit. There, high-pressure water guns turn the material into a watery mixture called slurry, which is sent through pipelines to a processing facility, referred to as a beneficiation plant, where phosphate rock is physically separated from the sand and clay in the matrix.
At the plant, the slurry is moved through a series of washing stations and vibrating screens that physically separate clay, sand and pebble-sized particles. The separated phosphate pebbles are moved through dewatering tanks and onto an inventory pile via conveyor belt. The clay particles are then pumped through pipelines into storage ponds (clay settling areas) where these particles sink to the bottom. These ponds function as reservoirs and help Mosaic recycle or reuse approximately 90 percent of the water at its phosphate facilities, while also supporting a variety of wildlife.
