Minrosa Himalayan Salt Lick Block with Rope

Minrosa Himalayan Salt Lick Block with Rope is a premium, 100% natural Himalayan rock salt lick designed to provide horses, ponies and livestock with convenient access to sodium, chloride and naturally occurring trace minerals.

Sourced from ancient mineral salt deposits in the Himalayan region, Minrosa salt licks provide a simple, natural way to supplement an animal's everyday feeding program.

Each solid rock salt block comes complete with a convenient hanging rope, allowing it to be easily positioned in stables, paddocks, yards and livestock shelters.

Unlike manufactured salt blocks containing added sweeteners or binding ingredients, Minrosa Himalayan Salt Licks are made from naturally occurring crystalline rock salt.

Their durable, weather-resistant structure makes them suitable for both indoor and outdoor use.

Natural Himalayan Mineral Salt

Minrosa Himalayan Salt Licks are produced from natural rock salt deposits formed from ancient seawater.

These deposits contain predominantly sodium chloride, together with small quantities of naturally occurring minerals and trace elements.

Minrosa reports that its Himalayan salt contains up to 84 naturally occurring minerals and trace elements.

The main nutritional benefit, however, is the supply of sodium and chloride, which are essential electrolytes.

Supports Healthy Hydration

Salt plays an important role in maintaining normal fluid balance in horses and livestock.

Sodium and chloride are essential electrolytes involved in:

• Maintaining normal hydration
• Supporting fluid balance
• Normal nerve transmission
• Muscle contraction
• Maintaining normal cellular function

Providing access to salt can help animals meet their daily sodium and chloride requirements.

Fresh, clean drinking water must always be available.

Essential for Horses & Ponies

Horses naturally lose sodium and chloride through sweat, urine and other normal bodily processes.

Salt requirements may increase during:

• Hot weather
• Exercise and training
• Competition
• Heavy sweating
• Increased workload
• Certain changes in feeding and management

Minrosa Himalayan Salt Lick Blocks provide a convenient way for horses to access supplementary salt throughout the day.

For heavily sweating horses, a salt lick alone may not provide sufficient electrolytes. Additional dietary salt or an appropriately formulated electrolyte supplement may be necessary.

Supports Normal Muscle & Nerve Function

Sodium and chloride contribute to important physiological functions, including normal nerve signalling and muscle activity.

Maintaining appropriate electrolyte intake is an essential part of a balanced equine feeding program.

Minrosa Himalayan Salt Licks provide a natural source of these minerals for horses and livestock.

Free-Choice Salt Supplementation

Minrosa Salt Licks are designed to be offered on a free-choice basis.

Animals can lick the block according to their preferences and needs.

The hard crystalline structure helps prevent the block from being consumed as quickly as some softer, manufactured products.

Important: Individual salt intake varies. Some animals may not consume enough salt from a lick alone, so salt intake should be assessed as part of the complete feeding program.

Convenient Hanging Rope

Each Minrosa Himalayan Salt Lick Block is supplied with a rope for easy hanging.

The rope allows the block to be positioned in:

• Horse stables
• Paddocks
• Horse yards
• Feed sheds
• Cattle yards
• Livestock shelters
• Suitable feeding areas

Hanging the block helps keep it off the ground and away from mud, manure and other contamination.

Durable & Weather Resistant

Minrosa Himalayan Salt Licks are naturally hard and weather-resistant.

Their solid crystalline structure makes them suitable for use in outdoor environments.

Unlike some pressed salt blocks, the natural rock salt structure is designed to tolerate exposure to rain and changing weather conditions.

For maximum product life, position the block in a sheltered area where practical.

Suitable for Horses & Livestock

Minrosa Himalayan Salt Lick Blocks are suitable for use with a range of livestock species, including:

• Horses
• Ponies
• Cattle
• Sheep
• Goats
• Alpacas

Always consider the individual animal's nutritional requirements and any existing mineral supplements being fed.

Nutritional Composition

Minrosa provides the following typical mineral analysis:

Mineral	Amount
Chloride	59%
Sodium	38%
Calcium	0.05%
Magnesium	0.05%
Sulphate	0.54%
Iron	Less than 5ppm
Lead	Less than 0.2ppm
Copper	Less than 0.2ppm

The product is primarily a sodium chloride supplement. Its naturally occurring trace minerals are not present in sufficient quantities to replace a balanced vitamin and mineral supplement where one is required.

How to Use

1. Select a suitable location in the stable, paddock or livestock enclosure.
2. Securely attach the rope to an appropriate post, rail or mounting point.
3. Position the salt lick where the animal can reach it comfortably.
4. Allow free-choice access.
5. Check the block and rope regularly for wear or damage.
6. Replace the block when it becomes too small or unsuitable for safe use.

Always ensure that the rope cannot become entangled around an animal's head, neck or legs.

Feeding Directions

Horses & Ponies: Provide free-choice access as part of a balanced feeding program.

Cattle, Sheep & Goats: Provide access where appropriate for the animals' dietary salt requirements.

Alpacas: Use as part of a species-appropriate mineral management program.

There is no fixed daily feeding rate because intake depends on the animal, diet, environment and level of activity.

If you are unsure whether your animal is receiving adequate salt, consult your veterinarian or qualified animal nutritionist.

Important Information

Minrosa Himalayan Salt Lick Blocks are nutritional salt supplements and should not be used as a replacement for a complete mineral-balancing program.

Animals must always have unrestricted access to clean drinking water.

Salt requirements vary depending on species, bodyweight, feed composition, workload, climate and individual health.

For animals with medical conditions requiring sodium restriction, seek veterinary advice before use.
