Summary

[edit]
Description
English: red rock salt from the Khewra Salt Mine in northern Pakistan, falsely known and sold as Himalaya salt. The large piece weighs about 3.8 kilograms, all together five kg. The chemical composition of this so known "Himalayan salt" includes 95–96% sodium chloride, contaminated with 2–3% polyhalite and small amounts of ten other minerals. The pink color is due to Iron compounds
Deutsch: Nordpakistanisches Steinsalz in intensivroter Farbe aus dem Khewra Salzabbaugebiet, fälschlicherweise auch als Himalayasalz im Handel erhältlich. Das große Stück wiegt 3,8 kg, insgesamt sind auf diesem Bild fünf Kilogramm Salz. Dieses Salz besteht aus bis zu 97 bis 98 Prozent aus Natriumchlorid und einem geringen Anteil von etwa sieben weiteren Mineralien wie Gips und begleitende Sulfate, sowie Kaliumchlorid. Seine rötliche Färbung verdankt es Eisenverbindungen
