This dolomite-rich waste rock (DRWR) presents both environmental risks, such as groundwater contamination, and opportunities for producing valuable calcium and magnesium phosphate compounds. This study explores the potential of phosphoric acid (PA), a phosphate industry product, for selectively leaching dolomite from DRWR to recover calcium and magnesium phosphates. Using a design of experiments (DOE) methodology, the research examines factors affecting leaching efficiency, including temperature, PA concentration, particle size, acid introduction method, solid–liquid (S/L) ratio, reaction time, and stirring speed. Thermodynamic analysis revealed that PA selectively reacted with dolomite in a temperature-sensitive manner, with optimal conditions identified as 44.97 °C, 3.07 mol/L PA, 47 min reaction time, and a S/L ratio of 5.69/50 (g/mL) using a Box-Behnken design. Kinetic studies, employing the shrinking core model, measured the dissolution rate across various conditions—leaching temperature (20–80 °C), stirrer speed (200–750 rpm), particle size (−90 µm to 600 µm), and PA concentration (0.5–4.5 M).
