Halite Altiplano Salt Flats Bolivia
Product Description
This halite specimen is from the Salar de Uyuni Salar, the largest salt flat in the world. The area covers almost 4,000 square miles.

When it rains the water lays so flat across this expanse that it becomes the world's largest mirror. The salt is also rich in lithium.
