Gypsum is an evaporite mineral most commonly found in layered sedimentary deposits in association with halite, anhydrite, sulfur, calcite, and dolomite. Gypsum (CaSO 4. 2H 2 O) is very similar to Anhydrite (CaSO 4). The chemical difference is that gypsum contains two waters and anhydrite is without water. Gypsum is the most common sulfate mineral.

Characteristics: Rock gypsum is composed mainly of the single mineral, gypsum. Gypsum is very soft (softer than a fingernail and so can be scratched by a fingernail). It's color is typically clear or white, but can take on color from impurities, such as pink or yellow. It will not effervesce (fizz) in dilute HCl acid.

Gypsum is considered an evaporate and forms when evaporation of water allows oxygen to bond with the surrounding sulfur to create sulfate. The sulfate will then bond with surrounding calcium and water to create the final product gypsum. Gypsum has the following properties: Mohs Scale Hardness : 1.5 – 2. Specific Gravity: 2.31 – 2.33.
