Where are sodium mines?
Sodium is not mined. At least not a sodium. Sodium metal is highly reactive, and as such, it is not found free in nature. It will be found in conbination with another or other elements. The most common form in which we see sodium is as halite or sodium chloride, which is table salt. And there are salt mines in a number of locations around the world. If we are recovering sodium metal for some reason, we can melt salt (sodium chloride) and separate it through an electrochemical process. But we have to cool and store the sodium carefully. Even the moisture in air can (and will) react with sodium.

What chemical form is sodium mined?
Sodium isn't exactly mined. Sodium in its pure substance cannot be found freely in the environment. Sodium must go through a process of electrolysis (the process of shooting an electrical current through a substance) to break down the sodium compounds into pure sodium. These sodium compounds are found in multiple places. They can be found in the ocean, coal/salt mines, and many other places. In fact about 2.6% of the Earths crust is made up of sodium compounds.
