Epsom Salts Monorail Epsom Salts Monorail The Epsom Salts Monorail or Magnesium Monorail was a short-lived Lartigue Monorail in San Bernardino County, California, in the United States. It was built to carry epsomite (hydrated magnesium sulphate) from a deposit in the Owlshead Mountains to a siding of the Trona Railway. It ran nearly due east from Trona, for a distance of about . The monorail was opened in 1924 and closed in June 1926. Thomas Wright, a florist from Los Angeles, set-up a camp in Crystal Hills Wash in 1918 and prepared an area for salt mining, where he had previously found some
Magnesium malate characteristic of having two elemental magnesium molecules, whereas magnesium malate has a single elemental magnesium molecule. Magnesium malate Magnesium malate, the magnesium salt of malic acid, is a mineral supplement often used for nutritional concerns. It is represented by the chemical formula C4H4MgO5 and has a molecular weight of 156.376 g/mol. Magnesium malate is discussed as being a more bioavailable form of magnesium, along with other forms such as citrate and glycinate. Dimagnesium malate is another common form of this compound seen in the dietary supplement market, produced by such dimetalhydroxy malate-yielding processes as the one described by a 1997
