Zechstein Sea WellFacts Zechstein Inside® salt is the purest natural

magnesium chloride hexahydraat and therefore the most noble salt in the world.

The Zechstein Sea existed approx. 250 million years ago.

The Zechstein Sea was separated several times from the ocean.

The Zechstein Sea experienced three significant cycles of flushing and drying in a period of approx. 10 millions of years.

Zechstein Sea WellFacts The Zechstein Sea salt deposits are located in the

Northwest of Europe approx.1500 m below the surface.

Exploitable magnesium chloride hexahydrate deposits settled in the North of the Netherlands.

The Zechstein Sea has always been protected against modern pollution.

Zechstein Inside® magnesium chloride is collected by solution mining technology.

The density of the magnesium chloride solution 32% (“magnesium oil”) is greater than 1,30 kg/l.

Zechstein Sea WellZechstein Inside® batch protocol Each batch production of Zechstein Inside®, has its

own “Certificate of Origin”, with detailed analyses.

These analyses are a “fingerprint”, for track and tracebility.

The lab with two ICP’s (Inductive Coupled Plasma) Nedmag’s lab has the knowledge to measure trace elements on ppb (parts per billion) level in a complex salt matrix
