Traditionally classified into two types : of yellowish colour and camphor odour (Kapur shilajit), and of black color (Gomuthira shilajit). The latter is again classified according to the predominant metal ore found in the mountain of it's origin : redish gold-shilajit (gser zhun), whitish silver-shilajit (dngul zhun), bluish copper-shilajit (zangs zhun) and blackish iron-shilajit (lcag zhun). The last is the most commonly found.
Shilajit is a rock-exsudate from steep, sunny mountain cliff cavities and crags at an altitude of 2000-4000 m. It's a tar-like substance with a balsamic odour. Known since Aristote as Mumijo and later as Asphaltum punjabinum, it disappeared from the western pharmacopoeias. It is rich in organic carbon and composed of appr. 20% minerals, 15% proteins, 5 % lipids, 5 % steroids, and the rest are carbohydrates, alkaloids and amino acids. It's origin is discussed between rock source or biological source, probably of ancient organic matter source which exsudes from rocklayers as a result of geological activity.
