How does a chemical sedimentary rock such as halite form?

As the water evaporates, chunks of salt are leftover on the shores of the lake. The water levels can be extremely high in salt content, and a stick or stone placed in the water will become coated with a layer of Halite if allowed to form. Many of these inland lakes have already dried up, leaving over enormous salt deposits.
