This depends on the quality of salt from a specified mine.
The solution of the mined rock salt (NaCl) is called brine.
Rock salt is separated industrially through a process called solution mining or cavern mining. This involves injecting water into underground salt deposits to dissolve the salt and then pumping the saltwater solution to the surface. The solution is then evaporated to recover the rock salt.
Rock salt "rock" is mined from ancient seabed deposits or contemporary salt flats and crushed into a coarse mesh product used for roads, water softeners, and as feedstock for chemical products. It is further refined for use as table salt depending on origin and purity.
sodium is from salt rock. salt rock is mined and turned into table salt.
Yes, rock salt is typically mined from underground salt deposits through conventional mining methods such as drilling, blasting, and extracting the salt using heavy equipment. It can also be obtained through solution mining by injecting water into underground salt formations and then pumping out the resulting brine for further processing to extract the salt.
Rock salt
Table salt is obtained from rock salt (from mines) or from sea salt by refining up to 97 % NaCl or more. Common procedures include filtering of the solution and crystallization/recrystallization.
it was a salt rock
Chlorine is primarily found in the Earth's crust as the mineral halite (rock salt), which can be mined from underground salt deposits. It can also be extracted from seawater through a process called electrolysis. Additionally, chlorine is produced commercially through the electrolysis of brine (sodium chloride solution) or by the thermal decomposition of hydrochloric acid.
Khewra and Dandot
Pakistan has the largest reserves of Rock Salt in the world. Rock salt is mined in Khewra and Dandot. Both areas are situated in the upper Punjab.
Himalayan salt is mined from the Khewra Salt Mine in Pakistan, which is located at the western edge of the Himalayas. The salt is typically hand-mined and extracted from rock salt deposits that have been forming for millions of years.
