- The sediment that is left after the evaporation of seawater
- Evaporites are water-soluble mineral sediments that result from the evaporation of bodies of surficial water. Evaporites are considered sedimentary rocks.
- (evaporites) rocks formed from evaporation of salty and mineral-rich liquid
- A rock composed of minerals derived from evaporation of mineralized water. Examples: rock salt, gypsum.
- Sedimentary rocks made up of minerals that are deposited from the precipitation of evaporated seawater. (M. MacFadzen)
- A general group of rocks produced by the extensive evaporation of a saline solution.
- A combination of elements (calcium carbonate, salt, etc.) deposited in subsoils of arid climates as a result of water evaporation. The area of the deposit is usually at the base of the wetting front.
- A mineral found in a sedimentary rock consisting mainly of salt formed by the evaporation of ocean water.
- A chemical sedimentary rock consisting of minerals precipitated by evaporating waters, especially salt and gypsum.
