Peacock Salt

Rock salt is mined from underground seams formed millions of years ago, when land movements divided the oceans. Isolated Lagoons dried up leaving salt residue.

This has been pressurised over the centuries, by the movement of the earth’s surface to form hard seams.

Sea salt is produced by the action of sun and wind in seawater basins. Water is naturally evaporated creating salt crystals that can be washed, refined and screened. Sea salt crystals are generally softer than rock salt crystals.

Salt is manufactured by pumping water through a salt seam and collecting the saturated brine. This is processed through a vacuum pan evaporator to produce pure salt slurry, which is then dried. Most table salt is made this way
