Overview

Not every Shilajit resin needs the same sales pitch.

The strongest reason to consider Siberian Altai is the amount of information available about the material itself. It combines the broadest measured elemental profile in our current regional range with the most extensive testing programme we have published for an individual origin.

Across two complementary analytical panels, 22 distinct elements were assessed, with 17 reported at numerical concentrations. These results sit alongside fulvic and humic acid measurements and a wider contaminant-testing programme.

That provides a more useful picture of the resin than relying on broad claims such as “85 minerals” without identifying the elements, concentrations or analytical methods involved.

Why Choose Siberian Altai?

More of the composition has been measured

Many Shilajit products are marketed primarily around two pieces of information:

• The mountain range

• A fulvic acid percentage

Neither provides a complete picture on its own.

Our current Siberian Altai testing looks at:

• Fulvic substances

• Humic substances

• Minerals and trace elements

• Heavy metals

• Solvent residues

• Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons

• Microbiological quality

These analyses answer different questions. Composition testing identifies and measures specified components of the resin, while contaminant screening provides information about substances and organisms assessed within the scope of each laboratory method.

This makes Siberian Altai a strong choice within our current range for customers who place particular value on the breadth of the available composition and testing data.

It is not presented as the best resin for everyone. It is intended for customers who want more information available before deciding what to buy.

The Broadest Measured Elemental Profile in Our Range

The published Siberian Altai laboratory reports cover 22 distinct elements across two complementary analytical panels, with numerical concentrations reported for 17.

The first analysis included fulvic and humic acids alongside elemental composition and heavy-metal determinations. A subsequent panel provided additional measurements for several trace elements, including some initially reported below a higher reporting threshold.

Both reports reference laboratory sample SP 2974/25, allowing the results to be considered together as analyses of the same submitted material.

Selected results include:

Element	Current published result
Potassium	6.81% m/m
Calcium	3.39% m/m
Magnesium	0.45% m/m
Phosphorus	0.17% m/m
Iron	923 mg/kg
Manganese	64 mg/kg
Boron	60 mg/kg
Zinc	21 mg/kg
Copper	9 mg/kg
Lithium	6 mg/kg

Within our current published regional analyses, the Siberian Altai batch returned distinctive measured concentrations of several elements, including iron, potassium, calcium, phosphorus, manganese and zinc.

The additional panel also provides numerical results for elements such as copper, lithium, nickel, chromium, vanadium and zirconium, which were not individually quantified in the initial panel at its reporting thresholds.

These comparisons describe the batches tested. They do not mean that a normal serving is a nutritional source of these minerals, that the minerals are present in nutritionally significant quantities, or that higher measured concentrations produce stronger physiological effects.

The useful point is narrower: more of the elemental composition of this Siberian Altai resin has been measured and reported than for the other regional resins currently in our range.

Not every origin has been analysed using identical elemental panels or reporting limits. The breadth of a reported profile therefore reflects both the material tested and the scope of the laboratory analysis.

What the Elemental Profile Means

An elemental profile can provide useful information about a Shilajit resin, but it needs careful interpretation.

It may help show:

• Which elements were detected

• Their measured concentrations

• How one tested batch differs from another

• Whether broad compositional statements are supported by analytical data

It cannot establish:

• That every detected mineral is present in a nutritionally meaningful amount

• That the minerals are absorbed in a particular way

• That a broader elemental profile guarantees better results

• That the resin will produce a specific health effect

• Geographic origin on its own

Mineral composition may help support a broader assessment of provenance, but it cannot independently authenticate where a resin was collected.

We present the elemental results as compositional information, not as implied nutrition or health claims.

Siberian Altai Shilajit and Mumiyo

This resin is sourced from the Siberian Altai, a northern part of the wider Altai mountain system.

In Russia, Siberia and Central Asia, Shilajit-like mountain substances are commonly associated with the name Mumiyo, also written Mumijo or Mumie.

“Shilajit” is the term most familiar to customers in the UK. Mumiyo provides additional regional and cultural context for this origin.

That tradition helps explain the product identity, but it is not a substitute for modern assessment. The finished resin still requires appropriate purification, composition analysis and contaminant testing.

Read Siberian Altai Shilajit: Mumiyo, Golden Mountains and Cold-Climate Resin for more about the regional history and the distinction between traditional accounts and modern analytical evidence.

A Dark, Full-Bodied Resin

Siberian Altai Shilajit has a dense, dark appearance with an earthy, mineral-like and slightly bitter flavour.

Its texture changes naturally with temperature. It may become firmer when cool and softer when warm.

This is a traditional resin format rather than a capsule, powder or flavoured liquid.

Its appearance, texture and flavour are part of its sensory character, although they should not be treated as reliable indicators of purity or quality on their own.

It may not suit someone looking for a completely neutral taste or a pre-measured format. It is better suited to customers who specifically prefer a single-ingredient resin.

Fulvic and Humic Composition

Shilajit is not a single isolated substance.

It is a variable organic-mineral matrix containing different chemical fractions, including:

• Fulvic substances

• Humic substances

• Minerals and trace elements

• Other naturally occurring organic material

The current Siberian Altai analysis returned:

Fraction	Current published result
Fulvic acids	41.19% m/m
Humic acids	5.80% m/m

The results were produced using ISO 19822:2018.

These percentages help describe the tested resin, but neither should be treated as a universal quality score. Different analytical methods can produce substantially different results, so percentages should not be compared without considering how they were measured.

A higher fulvic or humic acid percentage does not automatically establish greater purity, effectiveness or product quality. These are measured fractions of a complex material, not a complete assessment of the finished resin.

Read Fulvic Acid in Shilajit: Which Test Can You Trust? for a more detailed explanation.

Tested Beyond the Headline Percentage

Fulvic acid analysis answers one compositional question. It does not provide a complete quality or contaminant assessment.

The published Siberian Altai testing also includes:

Heavy metals

• Lead

• Cadmium

• Mercury

• Arsenic

The results are reported according to the relevant laboratory methods and reporting limits.

Lead, cadmium and mercury were reported below their respective thresholds in the submitted analysis, while arsenic was measured at 0.7 mg/kg.

These results should be interpreted in the context of the tested sample, the laboratory methods and applicable safety criteria.

Solvent residues

Seven solvents were screened:

• Methanol

• Pentane

• Ethanol

• Acetone

• Isopropanol

• Hexane

• Heptane

Each was reported below 10 mg/kg in the tested sample.

These findings provide information about the screened solvent residues. They do not independently establish every aspect of the resin's extraction or purification process.

PAHs

Four polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons were analysed:

• Benzo[a]pyrene

• Benzo[a]anthracene

• Benzo[b]fluoranthene

• Chrysene

All four were reported below 0.2 mg/kg in the published analysis.

These measurements provide additional information about the tested material but should not be interpreted as proof that every possible environmental or processing-related contaminant has been excluded.

Microbiology

The analysis includes:

• Salmonella

• Coliforms

• Coagulase-positive staphylococci

• Yeast and mould

The laboratory report records the overall tested condition as compliant within the scope of the analyses shown.

Salmonella was not detected, while the other microbiological results were reported below 10 cfu/g.

Where a laboratory result is reported as below a reporting limit, we retain that terminology rather than rewriting it as absolute zero.

The complete results, including methods, reporting limits and testing scope, are available on our Shilajit laboratory testing page.
