The Murray Darling Basin is part of this natural geographic of the land, where an ancient inland ocean once flourished. Ocean sediments, the weathering of rocks and rainfall over millions of years formed the Murray/Darling Basin’s landscapes and rivers.
Still originally sea salt, just like all the other mined salts.
That’s fair, except I did read the page that I posted which contains details about the harvest site that only mentions the underground source and does not make any statements about the ocean.
Given the article above, and coupled with the knowledge that Mildura is definitely not near the ocean (in this millennium), it seemed reasonable to assert that that the salt was not derived from the ocean.
So yeah, I did read the link that I posted, but it did not mention that the salt deposits literally hundreds of kilometers inland originated from the ocean millions of years ago.
I withdraw my original statement, and hope you have a swell day. :)
All salt is sea salt.
All sea salt is hydrogen.
Except for all of the salt that isn’t sea salt…Edit: Apparently many millions of years ago, the salt was deposited by the ocean as the continent emerged, so even though this salt is harvested hundreds of kilometers inland, it is technically originally from the ocean.

Didn’t realise the ocean ever came up that far - it’s very inland. I stand corrected…The more you know!
You should try reading the links you post sometime, wild stuff in there
