The body requires a number of minerals in order to maintain its proper functioning. The minerals are used for a variety of physiological processes such as building blood and bone, making hormones, regulating heartbeat, and more. There are two types of minerals. Macrominerals are needed in large amounts. Trace minerals are needed in very small amounts. The macrominerals are calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, sodium, potassium, chloride, and sulfur. The trace minerals are iron, manganese, copper, iodine, zinc, cobalt, fluoride, and selenium.

Impure sodium sulfate used in making paper pulp, soaps and detergents, glass, ceramic glazes, and dyes.

OBS

About half of the world's sodium sulfate comes from natural sources..., while the other half is produced as a by-product of other processes. The most important of these is the production of hypochloric acid from sodium chloride(salt) and sulfuric acid(the Mannheim process), in which case the Na2So4 is known as "salt cake"... Alternatively, it can be produced from sulfur dioxide using the Hargreaves process...
