Export regions

Salt is shipped as grains and crystals whose colour and cleanliness depend on their source and preparation. Buyers inspect the lot for impurities rather than assuming that every white heap is alike.

It seasons food and, crucially, preserves fish and meat for trade and long voyages. Fisheries and ports need large supplies. Salt pans and mined deposits provide the material, which is gathered and prepared before shipment. This unshowy cargo helps make many other cargoes of provisions possible.
