Very widely is the short answer. If you have a crack at 'gypsum' in a reference work such as wikipedia, you'll find reference to the caves of giant gypsum crystals in the Naica mine in Mexico. These crystals are up to 12m long, 4m thick, and weigh up to 55 tons! But with a temp of just under 60oC and an RH of >>90%, time to explore is limited.
Back to the Q, large evaporite deposits of gypsum are found near the surface of the earth.
