How is there salt Himalayan?

Himalayan salt comes from ancient sea deposits that were formed millions of years ago in the Himalayan mountains. Over time, tectonic movements pushed these salt deposits deep into the earth, where they were preserved and became Himalayan salt bricks that are mined today. The salt is known for its pinkish hue, which comes from minerals and trace elements like iron, magnesium, and calcium. These natural Himalayan salt bricks are not only used for cooking but also their supposed health benefits, such as air purification and relaxation when used in lamps.
