I guess the Healthy Salt Company are more importers - than producers.
However - the concept of "Himalayan Harvest Pink Rock Salt" intrigued me - so I delved.
The first question of coarse is "so why it is Pink?".
The answer was not on the Healthy Salts website - tisk tisk - but Google came up with the goods (or someone else's goods to be exact). Basically along with the usual sodium - the salts also contain - potassium, iron, magnesium, calcium, and copper in trace amounts. It is the combination of these trace elements - that give it the pink colour.

Basically it is fossilized salt - and is found at the bottom of the Himalaya's. The locals being ingenious - also make lamps out of it - that glow - pink
The salt is unrefined - and therefore good for you - as long as you only use it sparingly!
