Sea salt made from current seawater would include microplastics from that water, but rock salt would not as it was formed before these plastics existed. On the other hand, various mines of rock salt may have all kinds of other mineral additions that may be harmful for human consumption, so most rock salt is used for e.g. deicing roads.
