Hi Tina, Maybe you have found a cheap source of magnesium oxide prills. Can't be too expensive when bought for this use. Maybe you should put it in *your* water...
Glacial silt should contain the minerals of the crushed rock of that area. I am under the impression that the benefits to the people of these areas comes from eating a simple and balanced diet of the plants irrigated with this water containing crushed rock, rather than just ingesting it themselves... I don't know how to test for minerals.
