Himalayan Salt is chemically similar to Table Salt plus mineral impurities like chromium, iron, zinc, lead, and copper. Pink Himalayan Salt is often said to be the most beneficial as well as the cleanest Salt available on this planet today.

Some Salt crystals from the Himalayas have an off-white to transparent color, while impurities in some veins of Salt give it a pink, reddish, or beet-red color.

The concentration of salt near Khewra, Punjab is said to have been discovered around 326 BC when the troops led by Alexander the Great stopped to rest there and noticed their horses licking the salty rocks. Salt was probably mined there from that time, but the first records of mining are from the Janjua people in the 1200s.

Himalayan Salt is mostly mined at the Khewra Salt Mine in Khewra, Jhelum District, Punjab, which is situated in the foothills of the Salt Range hill system in the Punjab province of the Pakistan Indo-Gangetic Plain.

Pink Himalayan Salt is a truly unique salt. It’s also referred to as Pink Salt, Himalayan Sea Salt, Rock Salt and Himalayan Crystal Salt.

This salt is classified as Rock Salt or Halite, which comes from the Punjab region of Pakistan about 190 miles from the Himalayas. This region has one of the richest salt fields in the entire world, and they are very old. With a history dating back to Earth’s creation, Himalayan Salt is believed to be composed of dried remnants of the original, primal sea.

Himalayan Crystal Salt comes from salt mines 5,000 feet deep below the Himalayan Mountain Range. The salt from these mines has experienced tremendous pressure over millions of years and is said to be over 99% pure.
