Where it comes from
Authentic Shilajit forms over centuries in the rock faces of high mountain ranges, seeping out as a tar-like resin in the summer heat. Ours is sourced high in the Himalayas, between roughly 16,000 and 18,000 feet, where the mineral pitch is richest and least contaminated by industry or farmland below. We work with collectors who hand-harvest the raw resin from these altitudes rather than buying bulk, pre-processed paste of unknown origin.
How it’s purified
Raw Shilajit cannot be eaten straight from the rock — it carries soil, plant matter, and grit. The traditional purification we use is simple and gentle: the raw resin is dissolved in spring water, filtered repeatedly to remove insoluble debris, and then slowly concentrated at low temperatures. We never use high heat, which can degrade the fulvic and humic compounds that make Shilajit worth taking in the first place. What’s left is a pure, uncut resin — no fillers, no flow agents, no maltodextrin.
Every batch is lab-tested
This is the part most brands skip. Because Shilajit is a mineral compound, it can concentrate heavy metals if it’s sourced or processed badly. Every batch we sell is tested by an independent UK laboratory for heavy metals (lead, arsenic, mercury, cadmium), microbial safety, and fulvic acid content before it’s released. If a batch doesn’t pass, it doesn’t ship. It’s that straightforward.

RAW Shilajit is owned and run by 715 Trading Ltd (Company Number 12746708), a UK-registered company. We’re a small team that got into this because the Shilajit we were buying ourselves was inconsistent, badly labelled, and often barely Shilajit at all. Everything we sell ships from the UK with tracked delivery, and our support is handled by real people at admin@rawshilajit.co.uk.
Our promise
100% raw compounds. No fillers, no cuts, no preservatives. Independently tested, honestly labelled, and backed by our refund policy. If your order isn’t right, we’ll make it right.
