Default Dead Sea Works - MAG Flakes in Victoria

Randy Holmes-Farley 2 part (actually 3 part) specifies that DeadSea Works - MAG Flakes can be used to raise magnesium.

Good luck, as far as I know you can only get it thru Univar, they have office in Richmond. Minimum order might be a problem.

FWIW all magnesium chloride comes from the dead sea area.

I happen to sell Magnesium Chloride (from one of the Dead Sea brands) and I usually mix it with Magnesium Sulfate to get the optimum ratio as per Randy's suggestions. Just look at my vendor page for details. I can sell it separate though, if one wants.
