What about mineral by-products are valuable?

NVIC: About
These materials contain different minerals that are valuable in agriculture and help to maintain plant health. The most valuable material in most of these by-products is free lime.

What is mineral accretion?

Frequently Asked Questions
Mineral Accretion, or the Biorock? process, is a new method that uses low voltage direct current electricity to grow solid limestone rock structures in the sea and accelerate the growth of corals providing homes for reef fish and protecting the shoreline. The electrical current causes minerals that are naturally dissolved in seawater to precipitate and adhere to a metal structure. The result is a composite of limestone and brucite with mechanical strength similar to concrete.

Webster defines minerals as solid, crystalline substances (diamond, copper, quartz, etc.) not of animal or vegetable origin. Minerals for nutritional purposes cannot be synthesized by the body and as the definition states - they are not of animal or vegetable origin.

Frequently Asked Questions

Most mineral powders give me a shiny look — how is it that your mineral powder is matte?

Frequently Asked Questions
It's all in the ingredients. We don't use bismuth oxychloride, an ingredient that gives most mineral powders their "glowy" look and silky texture. Some people are sensitive to this ingredient and find that it can cause breakouts, itching and irritation.
