evaporiteforming
Evaporite forming is a geological process that involves the formation of evaporite minerals through the evaporation of water. This process occurs in shallow pools of water, such as ponds, lakes, and salt pans, which are characterized by high evaporation rates and limited water input. The primary minerals that form through evaporite formation are halite (rock salt), gypsum, and anhydrite.
The process of evaporite formation begins with the concentration of dissolved minerals in the water through
Evaporite forming can occur in a variety of environments, including arid and semi-arid regions. The most well-known
The formation of evaporites is also influenced by factors such as the chemistry of the water, the
