History of Halite Salt

Halite salt is an unrefined and pure mineral salt from the Himalayas and is traditionally mined by hand in Pakistan. The salt in the Himalayas is a remnant of an ancient sea. Over the centuries, the water of this ancient sea evaporated and left behind pure, uncontaminated salt. Halite consists of salt and many additional minerals and trace elements.

The name of halite comes from the Greek word 'hals' which means seawater, salt. Salt was at the Romans a very valuable commodity and it was used as a flavoring, but also as a cosmetic.
