Salt for Africa

Piles of salt are stored at a production site of Swakopmund Salt Company, Namibia, on Wednesday, May 25, 2016. Salt is crystallized in salt lakes by the solar evaporation method. Then salt is scooped up by special machines, washed with salt and fresh water and dried in a hot air oven at about 185°C. Salt produced at the factory is intended for the market of 15 African countries. ( (Photo by Oleksandr Rupeta/NurPhoto via Getty Images))
