In Africa, Spain's primary expansion directions are twofold.
One is the expansion of the South Morocco Colony towards the Western Sahara Desert. Although the Western Sahara Desert is barren with a sparse population, its economic value is still substantial.
After all, it is a coastal area with extremely rich fishing resources along the coast of the Western Sahara Region, where the small population primarily engages in fishing and animal husbandry.
Besides these common fishing resources, the Western Sahara also has extremely rich phosphate deposits, with reserves in Bukra alone reaching 1.7 billion tons.
Phosphate has numerous uses and can be widely applied in agriculture, chemicals, medicine, and crafts.
The primary use is to make phosphate fertilizer, which provides a crucial phosphorus element for crops, making it one of the very important fertilizers.
