Salt licks are places rich in essential minerals where animals regularly visit to lick the soil/water to supplement their diet. Salt licks in Sarawak are often identified by the locals based on animal footage. The chemical compositions and distributions of minerals in salt licks of Sarawak are scarcely reported. A study was done to determine and compare the mineral compositions (K, Mg, Na and Ca) in nine salt licks of Sarawak. The following is the data obtained. The data is also provided in Microsoft Excel.
