White gold. PROS. The salinas in Trapani are located in the almost 1000 hectare nature reserve established in 1995 and this fact has a positive effect on the salt production process: it is forced to minimize chemicals and the machine process to be minimized. It is known that sea salt is produced by the evaporation of seawater, and the local special distillation system removes harmful sulphates and gypsum, and leaves valuable nutrients. MINUSES. It is worth noting that the darker the sea salt, the greater the concentration of trace elements, but also of impurities. Due to pollution of the oceans, sea salt can and often does contain trace amounts of heavy metals such as lead. And it does not have a good effect on the purity of salt if it is stored near communication routes where large amounts of exhaust fumes from road vehicles are emitted.
