Actually, there are two sources of salt. One is sea salt and the other comes from mines. Your everyday table salt is mined salt. Mined salt is dug out, cleaned, bleached, and processed for human use. Sea salt comes from the sea through the natural process of evaporation. Salt beds are made with sea water and through time the water evaporates leaving the salt. The salt is then cut into blocks and sold. There are different colors of sea salt from white to black. It just depends on where the salt comes from in the world. It can also be bought as a fine grain salt to salt crystals.
