The remaining minerals are called evaporites.
Several minerals are left behind when water evaporates.
The rock formed when water evaporates and leaves minerals behind is called evaporite. This process typically occurs in arid environments where evaporation rates exceed precipitation rates, leading to the concentration and eventual precipitation of dissolved minerals. Common evaporite minerals include halite (rock salt), gypsum, and calcite.
Rocks formed by the evaporation of water are called evaporites. Examples of evaporites include rock salt, gypsum, and sylvite. These rocks form as a result of the precipitation of minerals as the water evaporates, leaving behind the dissolved materials.
Minerals deposited by water are known as evaporites. These minerals are formed when water evaporates and leaves behind dissolved minerals that then precipitate out of the solution and accumulate. Examples of evaporite minerals include halite (salt), gypsum, and calcite.
The chemical sedimentary rocks formed from evaporating water and leaving mineral deposits are called evaporites. These rocks include minerals like gypsum, halite, and calcite that precipitate out of solution as the water evaporates.

Precipitation causes dissolved substances to be left behind to form minerals after water in lakes or ponds evaporates.

Stalactites are formed from mineral deposits left behind as water drips and evaporates from the ceiling of a cave. Stalagmites are formed from the same mineral deposits, but build up on the cave floor as water droplets fall and leave behind minerals as they evaporate.

A dried substance remain.
Salts form when water containing dissolved minerals evaporates, leaving behind the solid minerals. Gypsum deposits are typically formed through the evaporation of seawater or saline lakes over long periods of time. As the water evaporates, gypsum crystals precipitate out and accumulate to form deposits.
