Description

Under a motionless, dazzling blue sky with the mountains of Jordan in view, the heat beats down every day of the year onto an amazing body of water that is known as the Dead Sea. The 'Sea of Salt,' as it is often referred to, lies at the bottom of a tectonic trench that was formed during a geographic cataclysm more than two million years ago. This trench is more than 400 meters below the Mediterranean, making it the lowest point on Earth.

bordered on the north by the Jordan River but having no outlet on the south. Absolutely nothing lives in this water; no fish, algae or mollusks. Dramatic saline formations resembling rocks or artistic sculptures rise above the surface.

The Dead Sea has a greater solid content than any other body of water, 30% compared to about 6% solids in ocean water. The water density is comprised of potassium chloride, magnesium chloride, sodium chloride, calcium chloride and bromides. Whereas ocean salt contains more than 97% sodium chloride but only trace amounts of magnesium and potassium, the salt from the Dead Sea is unique for its high proportion of potassium and magnesium ions and its relatively low sodium ion content.
