Behind the Scenes: How We Source Raw Salajeet From Skardu Mountains
Share
Most people see Salajeet only in a jar โ but almost no one sees the real journey behind it.
At PeakPure, every drop of our Salajeet starts its life high in the untouched Himalayan mountains of Skardu, where nature creates this powerful resin over thousands of years.
This blog takes you behind the scenesโฆ
from mountain cracks โ raw material โ sun-drying โ purification
โฆto finally reaching your home.
Welcome to the PeakPure journey.
๐ 1. The Real Origin โ Skardu, Kharmang & Khaplu
PeakPure sources raw Salajeet from:
โ Kharmang
โ Khaplu
โ Shigar belt
โ Cold Himalayan cliffs
These regions are:
- One of the purest geological locations in the world
- Free of pollution
- Known for extremely mineral-dense mountains
- The true birthplace of genuine Himalayan Salajeet
Fake sellers often claim โSkarduโ โ
but we actually work there.
๐งโ๏ธ 2. Hand-Collection by Local Experts
Salajeet does not grow on the surface.
It slowly oozes from rocks and cracks due to:
- Natural heat cycles
- Freezeโthaw pressure
- Biological decomposition
- Mineral fermentation
PeakPure works with local collectors who have generations of knowledge.
They:
โ Identify pure raw locations
โ Climb dangerous cliffs
โ Collect resin by hand
โ Never damage the mountains
โ Never use machines or chemicals
This is real Himalayan collection, not factory-made paste.
๐ชจ 3. Selecting Only High-Grade Raw Material
Not all raw Salajeet is equal.
PeakPure chooses only:
โ Fresh
โ Dense
โ Mineral-rich
โ Naturally fermented
โ Clean resin
We reject:
โ Powdery black stones
โ Burnt tar material
โ Afghanistan black powder
โ Mixed raw stones
Only top-grade resin is brought for purification.
๐ 4. Transporting Raw Material From the Mountains
The raw material is carefully packed and transported using:
- Mules
- Jeeps
- Local off-road routes
Why?
Because these regions are far from city life โ and we want the resin to arrive:
โ Untouched
โ Fresh
โ Undamaged
This part of the journey is tough, but worth it.
๐ง 5. The Cold-Water Separation Begins
Once raw Salajeet reaches our purification facility in Skardu:
We begin the first purification stage:
- Raw resin is dissolved in clean cold water
- Stones sink
- Fibers float
- Dust and sand separate
This stage removes most natural impurities โ without using heat.
PeakPure NEVER uses:
โ Fire
โ Hot boiling
โ Chemicals
โ Soda additives
Only water and patience.
๐งฝ 6. Multi-Layer Natural Filtration
The dissolved Salajeet goes through layers of natural filters:
โ Cotton cloth
โ Traditional stone filters
โ Micro-mesh sheets
โ Sand & carbon layers (ancient method)
This removes:
- Dust
- Soil
- Plant fibers
- Microparticles
The resin becomes crystal clean.
๐ 7. Sun-Drying โ The Heart of PeakPure Quality
This is the step that separates REAL original Salajeet from fake or fire-processed ones.
PeakPure spreads the filtered liquid resin under pure natural sunlight for 7โ15 days.
Sun-drying:
โ Protects minerals
โ Preserves fulvic acid
โ Creates natural texture
โ Maintains potency
We never use fire, because heat burns minerals and destroys nutrients.
Sun โ not fire โ gives true Himalayan energy.
๐งช 8. Lab Testing for Safety & Purity
Every batch is tested for:
โ Heavy metals
โ Microbial contamination
โ Purity percentage
โ Fulvic acid concentration
โ pH level
Our method is lab-approved and meets international safety standards.
Few brands in Pakistan do this โ we do it for every batch.
๐ซ 9. Small-Batch Packaging in Sterilized Jars
Once sun-dried and purified:
- Resin is filled into sterilized jars
- No preservatives
- No mixing
- No additives
- No powders
Only 100% pure Himalayan resin, directly from the mountains to your hands.
โจ 10. From the Mountains โ To Your Home
Your PeakPure Salajeet travels:
Skardu โ Kharmang collection โ purification โ sun-drying โ lab testing โ packaging โ your doorstep
