No there are not the same. Sea salt has no non-climping agents in it but table salt does. Some time ago they a certain salt company won the contract to supply salt licks for animals. The people that changed to that salt lick had multiple problems which included still births, birth defects and many other problems. Since salt was the only thing that they had changed in their animals diets they discontinued the salt that contained agents that kept it from clumping. In doing so their animals eventualy went back to having healthy deliveries, etc. Somtimes when you change things that are working it ends up rainging when it is pouring.

Both types of salt can be fully refined, but typically by volume, a teaspoon of sea salt has less sodium than a teaspoon of table salt. Most table salt is made chemically and does not contain may of the trace minerals found in sea salt. The human body requires about 1500mg to 2400mg of sodium per day, essential to heart function, and muscular contraction. Typically athletes, vegetarians, and those who live in hot climates or high elevations tend to require more sodium.

Sea salt and iodized salt are both sodium chloride. Sea salt also contains small amounts of other minerals such as magnesium chloride, magnesium sulfate and calcium sulfate, which are nutritionally insignificant. Iodized table salt is a good source of iodine, sea salt often is not.

Nearly all salt is kosher, including ordinary table salt.

No, both of these salts are NaCl, unless there are some healthier minerals or additives in sea water they were extracted from, they are no different.
