TURKEY and Syria exchanging artillery fire and Ankara threatening Damascus with the possibility of war should be sending tingles down the spines of phosphate investors -- just so long as their projects are somewhere else.

Syria not only has the world's 11th largest reserves of phosphate in the world, it is expanding its phosphate industry. Hence, should there be a full-scale shooting war, phosphate supplies could get a little crimped.
