The reason you would want the salt from your tears would be to use it on your food, if u use salt on your food in order to help you make those tears then it would end up being your own salt helping you make your own salt out of your tears for 100% sustainable salt making

[@ardynizunia9709]

@@Lunarcreeper Yeah but the term "crystal" is often misuses by people. What he really wants is a gemstone like crystal. Just saying the word crystal is too vague, ice is just crystalized water for example. So yeah, salt crystals won't make a good gemstone for a ring. The best you could use are these salt stones they make lamps out of I guess 🤔

[@anatolydyatlov963]

@@ardynizunia9709 Indeed! There even are time crystals, which are structures that have periodic cycles not only through space but also through time. The very first video of such a crystal was released in February this year. Their molecular patterns repeat again and again both in space and in time, which results in an ever-changing and morphing...thing.
