Rivers carry dissolved chemical substances into the ocean. The chemicals are mostly bicarbonate, silica, and salts which comprise about 4.6 billion tons of sediment added to the ocean each year.5 However I do not have info as per how much salt that is on its own. From http://www.icr.org/index.php?module=articles&action=view&ID=56 ----------
Sounded like a good question, so thought I'd try to find the answer.
In fact, however, you say how much salt is "DEPOSITED INTO" the oceans...
I found a site that showed how much a year it loses, by turning into sediment:
So if the oceans have become saltier over time, you may wonder if they're still getting saltier today. The answer is no--in fact, geochemists believe that the saltiness of the ocean has remained fairly stable for about 100 million years! That's because the ocean now gains and loses salt at about the same rate. How does the ocean lose salt? Each year, billions of tons of salt are deposited as sediment on the ocean floor.

Salt is better than no salt because if we get 0g. of salt in our body, we'll die. Salt is a main thing for humans. But, the average human gets way too much salt in a year, so we need to have salt- but balance it out and don't have too much of it.
Salt is dissolved from the Earth and transported by rivers in oceans and seas.
Well...I get it from a big barrel at my local supermarket. They get it from a salt company, and the salt company can get it in several ways. They can mine it like any other mineral. When they mined salt by hand, it was very dangerous work - which is why prisoners under sentence of death were usually the ones to do it. They can drill holes in a salt deposit, fill the holes with water, and continue to add water as it dissolves the salt deposit. It takes about a year to dissolve enough salt into the water to make recovering it commercially viable. After the salt water is strong enough, they pump it into a shallow pool, allow the water to evaporate, and scoop up the salt with a front end loader. Or they can build the pool close to the ocean, pump seawater into it and allow that to evaporate.
Tropical waters, while beautiful, have high light levels and are nutrient poor. The murkier temperate oceans are nutrient dense and have low light levels allowing for abundant plankton and algae formation.
It is difficult to provide an exact number as data on ocean deaths varies across different regions and causes (such as accidents, drownings, shark attacks, etc.). However, it is estimated that thousands of people die in oceans each year from various circumstances.
The Earth is composed of over 70 percent water. It is estimated that there are over 50 quadrillion tons of salt in the worldâ??s oceans.
Saltwater disproves evolution, because each year, the oceans get a little more salt in the from rocks, and if each year the ocean gathers a little bit of salt, then by now if the earth was millions of years old, we could float on the oceans, but we can't.Ashlyn Age 9
Oceans!
around 10 billion pounds of waste is recycled each year as u can see that is much less than what goes into our oceans we need to save our oceans!
How much sugar uk need every year
The average American household spends around $32 per year on salt.

Approx. 500 000 tons each year.
The amount of road salt that is used annually in Canada does fluctuate slightly year to year. In 2013 and estimated 4, 183, 000 tonnes of road salt were used.
In the United States, approximately 164 million tons of waste are deposited in landfill sites each year. However, this number can vary by country and region depending on factors such as population size, waste generation rates, and waste management practices.
