All I can answer is that the raw almonds I get from my local health food store are processed with a low heat steam to kill bacteria, but they are still sprout-able and alive(they are from CA). If it sprouts, it is raw in my book and I see no problem! The best way to know(if you dont feel like asking the store manager/owner) if the nuts are raw, is to see if they sprout.
