Gypsum is a soft sulfate mineral composed of calcium sulfate dihydrate, with the chemical formula CaSO 4 ·2H 2 O. It is widely mined and is used as a fertilizer and as the main constituent in many forms of plaster, blackboard/sidewalk chalk, and drywall.A massive fine-grained white or lightly tinted variety of gypsum, called alabaster, has been used for sculpture by many cultures including ...

Gypsum is an important industrial mineral, the demand of which has increased manifold over the years, especially due to growing cement industry. Considering the industrial significance of gypsum, we employed advanced space-borne thermal emission and reflection radiometer (ASTER) multispectral data to map gypsum outcrops in the Kohat area, northern Pakistan. Kohat area, also …

Exploration in the Naica mine (Chihuahua, Mexico) recently unveiled several caves containing giant, faceted, and transparent single crystals of gypsum (CaSO4•2H2O) as long as 11 m. These large crystals form at very low supersaturation. The problem is to explain how proper geochemical conditions can be sustained for a long time without large fluctuations that would trigger substantial nucleation.

In the exploration of brick clays, as a first step an exploration grid of 100 m x 100 m has proved effective. If the drilling results can be correlated well, the grid can be extended to 200 m x 200 m. If the results deviate on the other hand, densification of the grid to 50 m x 50 m can be recommended.

Methods of Mineral Exploration Originally, exploration entailed looking for a show of minerals in a hillside, cliff-face, etc. This show would include quartz veins or oxidative staining that included the element(s) of interest. The rock was then assayed (analyzed) to see what the concentration of the element of interest was.

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.
