Rock salt NaCl would be one example. Gypsum, CaSO4 would be another, likewise Limestone CaCo3.

What is mineral precipitation?
Dissolved minerals that precipitate out due to pH changes, temperature, pressure or simply evaporation
What forms when minerals dissolved in a water solution crystallize?
Non-Clastic, or chemical, sedimentary rock is formed from dissolved minerals. These rocks are made of chemical sediments that have been dissolved from minerals. Solid minerals precipitate out of the solution in water. These minerals layer, and the water above them causes the pressure which forms the rock.
What mineral is formed by the weathering of feldspar and other silicate minerals and is the principle mineral in clay and shale?
Kaolinite/Kaolin.
What are three common evaporite minerals?
Evaporite minerals are water-soluble mineral sediments that were formed from precipitation. The three common evaporite minerals are gypsum, anhydrite and halite.
Rocks that are formed of pieces of other rocks plant and animal matter or dissolved minerals are called?
Sedimentary rock
What forms when groundwater that contains dissolved minerals cools or evaporates?
Mineral deposits are formed when ground water that contains dissolved minerals are cooled or has evaporated. Some of these mineral deposits are iron ions, magnesium, and calcium.
What do you called minerals formed from dissolved minerals?
evaporites or precipatates
What sedimentary rock is made from solution of dissolved minerals and water?
Some limestones are made by precipitation of dissolved calcium carbonate. Some cherts are formed from dissolved silicates in thermal springs and evaporite minerals, such as gypsum and rock salt (halite) are formed by evaporation of water from solutions of dissolved minerals.
Why are diamonds minerals?
Diamonds are formed from carbon, which is a mineral.
What rock forms when mineral-rich water evaporates?
Chemical sedimentary rocks are formed from the precipitation from, or evaporation of, water that is saturated with dissolved minerals. In addition, most clastic sedimentary rocks are also formed from the cementing together of sediment particles by the precipitation of minerals from water.
Are some crystal formed from minerals dissolved in liquids?
Yes, in fact that's how a lot of crystals are formed.
Are some crystals are formed from minerals dissolved in liquids?
Yes, in fact that's how a lot of crystals are formed.
What causes mineral deposits in your water?
These minerals are dissolved in the water while it moves through the earth.
What kind of sedimentary rock is made from solutions of dissolve minerals and water?
Some limestones are made by precipitation of dissolved calcium carbonate. Some cherts are formed from dissolved silicates in thermal springs and evaporite minerals, such as gypsum and rock salt (halite) are formed by evaporation of water from solutions of dissolved minerals.
How are laboratory diamonds minerals?
Diamonds formed from carbon in the lab, are diamonds formed from the mineral carbon.
Do mineral form rocks?
Rocks are formed from combinations of minerals.
Are diamonds made in laboratories minerals?
Diamonds formed in laboratories are formed from carbon, which is an element. By definition, a mineral occurs naturally. So no, a lab-formed diamond is not a mineral.
