How Is Gypsum Formed? By Beth Asher SAVE; Gypsum is a sedimentary rock and a crystalline mineral “Gypsum is a soft, white to gray, "chalky" mineral composed of calcium sulfate and water,” says Raymond Anderson of Iowa’s Department of Natural Resourc Gypsum’s chemical symbol is CaSO4•2H2O , Properties of Alluvial Soils.

What is Gypsum? Gypsum is an evaporite mineral most commonly found in layered sedimentary deposits in association with halite, anhydrite, sulfur, calcite, and dolomiteGypsum (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.

With judicious heating, gypsum converts to the partially dehydrated mineral called calcium sulfate hemihydrate, calcined gypsum, and plaster of ParisThis material has the formula CaSO 4 (nH 2 O), where 05 ≤ n ≤ 08 Temperatures between 100 and 150 °C (212-302 °F) are required to drive off the water within its structure.

A fibrous variety of Gypsum or Calcite and Aragonite The name originally referred to a variety of Calcite found in "Cumberland, England", but the name was eventually used to cover varieties of Aragonite and Gypsum too, so this name is best used as an adjective in conjunction with a mineral name rather than as a specific variety name of its own

Gypsum crystals are known for their flexibility, and slim crystals can be slightly bent (Though trying to bend good crystals is not recommended, as their flexibility is weak, and if flexed too much they will break) Gypsum has the same chemical composition as the mineral Anhydrite, but contains water in its structure, which Anhydrite lacks.
