Builders' sand for drainage?

They don't wash it at the quarry, and that's where I get mine from. I'm a bit hazy about the geology side - I guess sand comes from both sea and river sources, so if former it would surely have traces of salt in it? But I must admit, I've never licked it so can't say. Simon Avery, Dartmoor, UK Ý http://www.digdilem.org/ try putting some sand in a container and adding water. Stir. Leave to settle. Taste water ?
