Brines
Brines are water saturated or rather nearly saturated with salt. It is basically used to preserve vegetables, fish, and meat. It was more popular in past than now.Few examples of Brine lakes are the Dead Sea and the Great Salt Lake in Utah. They are developed as a result of high evaporation rates in a desert climate and lack of an outlet to the ocean. The salt in these water bodies comes from the minerals washed out of the surrounding watershed or then from a geologically old, previous connection to the ocean.
Man-made brine ponds are a source of commercial table salt. They are located along an ocean shore. The salts are obtained by evaporating and purifying seawater. Commercial table salt is also obtained by way of a salt mine.
In England, Droitwich Spa, a town, is famous for the abundance of saturated brine.
