Rock salt

Vose deposit is located 2.3 km far from the village of Vose in the immediate vicinity of the Vose salt factory. The field is at the northern part of the salt mountains of stock Khoja Mumin, inferred resources of which are estimated at multi-billion tons. The deposit area is 0,6 km2. The total thickness of the rock salt strata is up to 180 m. The content of NaCl, as a whole for the deposit, ranges from 49, 89 to 91, 41%. The content of insoluble residue in salt is on average 4.7%.
