How it is made and where does it come from:
- Our salt is mined from deep within the foothills of the ancient Himalayan mountain range.
- The Salt layer/deposits were from an ancient seabed that evaporated some 250 million years ago, still preserving its crystalline structure.
Why Trace elements?
Trace elements/minerals are now universally recognised as being essential in any livestock diet. Although only required in very low levels their presence has a profound effect on livestock health and productivity.
