Phosphogenesis is defined as the authigenic formation of phosphate minerals—in marine environments, this is largely of the form carbonate fluorapatite, or CFA. This geochemical process was long considered unique (the "old" paradigm), because our understanding of phosphogenesis was limited to the product (phosphate minerals) instead of the process.
