Trivia

• Deep Brine's name may come from the term "Deep-sea Brine pools", which are lakes of highly salinated water, or water with high concentrations of dissolved salt, that are formed when water becomes more dense than the surrounding ocean and settles on the seafloor, usually in craters. Due to its high salinity, this water can be toxic to surrounding marine life. Many kinds of brine lakes exist and depending on the type of brine lake, they may be extracted for the resources they can contain through a process called brine mining. The Deep Brine's Slimepedia tagline - "Salt of the earth kind of stuff." - is a pun on the phrase Salt of the Earth.
