Shilajit Extract
Purified Himalayan mineral pitch, standardised for fulvic acid content, supplied for vitality and mineral-support formulations.
Not a plant or fungal extract — genuinely something else entirely.
Shilajit is different from everything else in our range: it isn't a botanical or fungal extract at all, but a purified mineral pitch that forms naturally over centuries in high-altitude Himalayan rock formations, primarily sourced from Nepal, India and Tibet. We supply it standardised to 50–60% fulvic acid, the mineral-organic acid complex used as its trade marker.
Purification quality is the single most important sourcing consideration for this specific ingredient. Raw, poorly-processed Shilajit can carry genuine heavy-metal contamination risk, so verifying the current batch's testing is essential rather than optional — not a formality we're including for completeness. Every batch carries a certificate of analysis confirming both fulvic acid content and heavy-metal screening. See Quality Assurance for the full testing process.
Where this extract typically gets used.
Vitality & mineral-support formulas
The primary use case — positioned around its natural mineral content and fulvic acid concentration, distinct from the plant-compound story of most of our other adaptogens.
Purification-verified sourcing story
Given how much purification quality varies across the wider Shilajit market, a documented heavy-metal-screened supply chain is a genuine differentiator worth leading with in your own marketing.

Where it comes from, and how we hold that to a standard.
Trade buyers increasingly need to answer sourcing questions themselves — here's what we can tell you about this specific ingredient.
Heavy-metal screening on every batch
Given the well-known contamination risk with poorly purified Shilajit, this isn't an optional add-on — every batch is screened, with results confirmed on the certificate of analysis. See Quality Assurance.
Established Himalayan sourcing
Sourced from the high-altitude regions where Shilajit is genuinely and traditionally collected, not a substitute source with a weaker provenance story.
Long-term supplier relationships
Purification-quality trust depends on consistent processing partners — we work with established suppliers on an ongoing basis rather than opportunistic spot-buying.
Batch traceability
Every batch is traceable back to its purification facility — ask if you need this documented for your own supply-chain due diligence.

| Consideration | Detail |
|---|---|
| Purification & heavy-metal risk | Always verify the current certificate of analysis for heavy-metal testing before sourcing — purification quality varies significantly across the wider Shilajit market. |
| Iron-overload conditions | Caution for those with iron-overload conditions, given the ingredient's natural mineral content. |
| General tolerability | Generally well tolerated when properly purified and used within the trade dose reference. |

Shilajit, answered.
No — Shilajit is a purified mineral pitch, formed naturally over centuries in high-altitude rock formations. It's not botanical or fungal, which is why it doesn't have a "botanical source" in the way the rest of our catalogue does.
Raw Shilajit, before proper purification, can carry genuine heavy-metal contamination from the rock formations it's collected from. This is a well-known issue across the wider market, which is exactly why we screen every batch and confirm it on the certificate of analysis rather than treating it as an assumed given.
Fulvic acid content is confirmed by HPLC, and heavy-metal screening is included on every batch's certificate of analysis as standard — not an optional or additional-cost test for this ingredient.
It follows the standard Starter tier from 1–10kg/month — see Wholesale & Trade Accounts for the full tier structure.
Properly purified Shilajit is generally well tolerated — see the Safety & Risk Information above, particularly around purification verification and iron-overload conditions. This isn't medical advice.
