Gypsum is a so-called evaporite rock. When seawater gets trapped in a restricted basin and begins to evaporate, it becomes more concentrated and enriched in minerals. Over a certain level of concentration, the minerals precipitate to form gypsum (CaSO4 * 2 H2O). As this diagenesis continues, the water evaporates completely, forming anhydrite (CaSO4) or, in other words, \u201cwater-free gypsum\u201d. Later, in the right conditions, anhydrite can partly or fully turn back into gypsum.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8220;1&#8243; admin_label=&#8220;Footer&#8220;
