Forgive me please, I'm a geologist so I know about this stuff. In a
granular material like processed salt (or beach sand, or gravel),
grain size doesn't determine bulk density. Size sorting does. i.e.,
if you fill a room with basketballs, there's a certain portion of
voids between the balls. Fill the same room with volley balls,
softballs, baseballs, golf balls, marbles, or BBs, the void ratio
stays the same, as long as the balls are of uniform size. BUT, if you
fill the room with a mix of balls, then the little balls fill the
voids between the big balls, the bulk density increases, and the void
space decreases.

In these processed salt products, the grain size is very consistent.
The bulk density differences are due to different crystal structures
and milling processes.

There's more to tell, but I'll shut up.
