Sedimentary rocks are forming in the Dead Sea because-

chemical sediments are commonly formed by the process of evaporation of water containing salts in solution.In desert regions, shallow lakes get evaporated leaving behind a layer of salts on the surface.These get consolidated into "Sedimentary Rocks".Rock salt(naturally occurring crystalline sodium chloride) is an example of chemically formed sedimentary rock,common in the Dead Sea,and Caspian Sea,Aral Sea,etc..
