Don't know too much about the ins and outs of this, but I do know that mineral stones or salt blocks are not good for hamsters. Salt is a no no, because they do not need any extra and too much can be bad for them. The mineral or calcium stones are not good, because they should be getting what they need in their mix. Any extra can lead to dangerous mineral imbalances.

I think Amityvillehams is probably the one who will be able to explain this best.
