Not quite. There is mined rock that is land locked and has never been in the ocean and there is rock that was previously live. Rock that was previously live will leech phosphate and sometimes nitrate and really should be "cooked" to leech these out before starting with any seeding. Dead rock can be cooked in freshwater. Mined rock won't leech anything because there is nothing on or in it that was ever alive.
