G. Cressey, in Encyclopedia of Geology, 2005 Introduction. Gypsum (CaSO 4 · 2H 2 O), the most common of the sulphate minerals, is also known as alabaster (a fine-grained massive form), satin spar (a fibrous variety of gypsum), or selenite (colourless transparent gypsum crystals). Gypsum is often found in considerable thicknesses within evaporite sequences and in association with Formation of gypsum and bassanite by cation exchange,2011-9-27 · Epsomite dehydrated to hexahydrite with decreasing RH in samples that initially contained montmorillonite and epsomite . Epsomite formed once again and was accompanied by the formation of gypsum at higher RH. Both epsomite and gypsum persisted until the end of the experiment when RH returned to a near-ambient value (50%).

gypcrete, gypsum-cemented duricrust, an indurated, or hardened, layer formed on or in soil. It generally occurs in a hot, arid or semiarid climate in a basin that has internal drainage. It usually is composed of about 95 percent gypsum (a hydrated calcium sulfate mineral) and is initially dGypsum, bassanite, and anhydrite at Gale crater, Mars,Conversely, lack of gypsum in CheMin samples indicates that it was initially absent, or below detection limits. Rapin et al. (2016) analyzed ChemCam laser ablation data of H abundance and found hydration equivalent to bassanite in surface analyses of Ca-sulfate veins, at laser depths of a few micrometers.

Over time, thick plates (1- to 3-cm thick) form gradually on the surface of the stone. Once the plate drops, the resulting stone surface turns into powder. At the Castle of Chambord, mineralogical analysis of the degraded stone, throughout its depth, shows the presence of

Gypsum, langbeinite, sulfur, and compost for reclamation
2018-4-30 · Gypsum contributed Ca, with concentrations ending up about equal to the initial levels. Mg levels under gypsum, elemental S, and untreated controls dropped from the initial level of 7.86 cmol c kg −1 to around 1.5 cmol c kg −1 by January and remained steady for Gypsum products SlideShare,2016-12-18 · • Gypsum products used in dentistry are formed by driving off part of the water of crystallization from gypsum to form calcium sulphate hemihydrate. • Gypsum → Gypsum product + water • 2CaSO4·2H2O → (CaSO4)2·H2O +
