Salt Market Review

This report focuses on the study of the global salt markets. It provides region analysis on salt production. It features major salt producers, prices, supply and demand conditions, in-ternational trade, etc. The review also includes future outlook of the world salt market.

Salt (sodium chloride, NaCl), occurs in nature in solid form as rock salt (halite), or in solution as brine. Rock salt occurs in beds, commonly associated with mudstone, up to several hundred metres in thickness. Natural brine is produced by the dissolution of salt-bearing strata by circulating groundwater or by solution mining which entails injecting water into salt beds and pumping out the resulting salt solution. This may contain up to 26% NaCl when fully saturated.

Please see the list below for more detailed information on the raised issues.
