Its Salt Remains, not just "salt".
Minerals take million of years to form. this lengthy process happened when heat and pressure acts on the remains of plants buried under rocks and soil. Which were then decomposed by micro organisms. the plant that grew again on that rich soil also got buried by the rocks and soil. In this way, layer after layer of plant remains got buried deeper and deeper, on the top of the other and after million of years the minerals are formed.
Petroleum is formed under Earth's surface by the decomposition of marine organisms. The remains of tiny organisms. EW!
Organic sedimentary rock is comprised of the remains of once living organisms.
Crude oil comes from these remains but it takes a very long time for them to form.
