8 Good reasons to use ORYX desert SALT:
100% pure
It is absolutely pure, naturally crystal white salt, as it has been traded ounce for ounce for gold from 8000 years ago.
Unprocessed / no additives
Exactly as nature intended - free from additives, anti-clumping agents & preservatives. Unrefined and unprocessed, non-iodised. Sun-dried.
Vital minerals & trace elements
From its ancient underground source ORYX desert SALT has all the minerals and trace elements that salt is supposed to have in the right proportion for your body to absorb and utilise for optimal functioning, vitality and health.
Sustainably harvested
Three underground streams converge in an ancient underground lake. The lake holds +- 55million tons of brine and has a +- 111% saturation, which allows the salt to crystallize in +- 4 weeks in the hot summer months. The salt is collected and packed in bags. This process is not depleting the natural source.
Ancient source
The Dwyka rock formations through which the underground streams flow leach the Sodium Chloride (NaCl), minerals and trace elements. The rock strata are geoscientifically tested between 250-300 million years old. Ancient and pure.
Pollution free
The 50km2 salt pan is situated in the Kalahari Desert basin reaching over 2,5million km2. It is a remote, pristine and uninhabitable area and is as pollution free as one can get.
