trace mineral salt...for cattle for goats?

The feed store accidentally delivered trace mineral salt for cattle. I pi$$ed around and never returned it so there it sits.

Can I use it for my goats? Put it out for them to eat at as they choose?

The 1 year old cow lives with them. Would he eat too much of it?

What's in it? Most cattle mixes have too much iron and too much salt.

Put it out in the woods for the deer. Get the right stuff.
