Firstly, sift the mixture to separate the gravel from the sand and salt.
Now place the sifted mixture into water. The sand will sink to the bottom and the salt will eventually dissolve.
Pour this watery mixture through filter paper to catch all of the sand.
If you want the salt back in solid form, simply boil the water.
