Chlorine is most commonly found in salt, "sodium chloride." Potassium chloride (KCl, aka sylvite) is another common chlorine containing mineral.
Chlorine may be extracted from these salts and used to treat municipal water supplies to prevent cholera and other water born illnesses. Chlorine may also be placed in man made Swimming Pools to inhibit bacterial growth.
