Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. The product has a lighter coloured aggregate mixed into the dark basalt. The aggregate size is only 1mm but is noticeable throughout. What is this substance?
A. From the Manufacturer: I think what the customer is referring to is the elemental sulphur we add to the volcanic dust as a trace element. It's very good for soil health.
Q. I am interested in buying your volcanic rock dust, but I need a very fine, small particle size, like flour actually. Can you confirm that this product is a very fine consistency, please?
A. Yes, I was able to see the dust via the clear side of the packet and the volcanic dust that I looked at was very fine and resembled grey flour.
Q. Where is your volcanic rock dust obtained from?
A. This rock dust is from somewhere in Australia but the manufacturer would not disclose the location since it's a high-quality product which many others seek to emulate.

A. I got this answer from the manufacturer: "Attached is an analysis of the trace elements. Boron and molybdenum are essential trace elements for plant and animal health at the right concentrations which our product contains. I will have to look for lead levels analysis however I am sure they are well within limits. Also, we have conducted hair analysis from time to time throughout the years for heavy metal detection. I have very high exposure levels to the volcanic rock dust and all the tests come up with no problems at all that may be associated with the product" See above image for analysis.
Q. What is the paramagnetic value of your volcanic rock dust?
