How did hunter-gatherers get enough salt in their diet?

Did they just find salt on the ground and lick it? Did they drink animal blood? Did they drink ocean water (I hope not)?

I’ve always wondered this since I was a little kid.

One thing to remember is all the animals living in the same place would also need a source of salt. For example elephants will go into caves or even dig in the ground looking for natural salt, humans could get it from the same sources.
