Salt that-the evaporated water from-the sea leaves behind is simply reabsorbed by the neighboring water below. Seawater contains a variety of salts, but the major salt deposits in the geological record of ground layers are absolutely pure salt & the most abundant salt in seawater is Sodium Chloride (NaCl).

The water itself turns into vapor and enters the atmosphere. Any dissolved substances within (NaCl, KCl, CaCO3, etc.) are precipitated out

What happens to any minerals and salt in water that has been completely evaporated?

The minerals precipitate out of the solution. This is one of the methods of obtaining salt - large shallow pieces of land are filled with seawater. When the water evaporates it leaves salt and other minerals (such as calcium) at the base of the land.

How is salt made by evaporation?

Salt is not "made". Seawater is a solution of mainly water and salt. When exposed to sunlight, the seawater, because it's a liquid, evaporates and flyes away. However, salt, being a solid (even when dissolved), will not as easely fly away, and stay behind. It can then be collected and used.
