Does AZOMITE have magnesium?

Azomite is a trademarked acronym for “A to Z Minerals Including Trace Elements.” Mined in Utah, it’s ancient volcanic dust that merged with sea water 30 million years ago. It’s high in potassium and iron and has small amounts of magnesium and other trace elements.

Does Azomite raise pH?

The pH of AZOMITE® is 8.0; however adding AZOMITE® does not seem to raise the pH. A pH of less than 7 is considered acidic.

Is Azomite a good source of silica?

Azomite® not only alleviates hidden hunger by supplying all elements necessary to plant and animal health, it also supplies a high level of bio-available silicon (as silicon dioxide unlike the silica in sand which is silicon oxide), a macro-element that is deficient in sandy and “muck” type soils.
