Summary

Description
English: Kibiro salts are extracted from the natural salt springs found in the Kibiro area. These salt springs were formed due to volcanic activity in the region, resulting in the presence of saltwater in the underground aquifers. The indigenous people of the area, primarily the Alur and the Banyoro, discovered these salt springs and recognized the value of the salt. The extraction of Kibiro salts is traditionally done using simple and age-old methods. The saltwater from the springs is diverted into shallow pools or pans made of clay. The water is then left to evaporate under the sun, leaving behind salt crystals. These crystals are then harvested, cleaned, and packaged for sale or trade.
