Where's all of the 1.5e17 kg of Mars salt?

That's roughly 1% of the total worth of all the salt upon Earth.

Even taking it down another notch to 1e17 kg of Mars salt;  where is
it hiding?

How the heck did Earth get so much salt, and Mars didn't hardly get
squat?

What if Mars was supposed to be worth as much as 10% of our
terrestrial salt?

How does salt manage to migrate away from such an atmospheric
protected planet?

This seems especially extra weird if supposedly Mars isn't any older
than Earth.
