An accurate, rapid and relatively cheap method adapted for use in the phosphate industry for on‐line simultaneous multielement analysis of phosphate ore and calcined phosphate, using x‐ray fluorescence, is described. The method of analysis is sufficiently accurate for the phosphate industry, which demands great accuracy in P 2 O 5 analysis. A statistical evaluation of precision and accuracy is given.
