Allen Pyle. Gypsum is calcium sulfate dihydrate (CaSO 4 2H 2 O). It is a natural mineral that occurs in certain types of sedimentary rocks. Gypsum forms when water evaporates in mineral-rich marine soil environments. Over long periods of time, evaporation brings more minerals to the soil surface, eventually forming a solid deposit.
سؤالExecutive Summary Basis for Nomination Gypsum (the naturally mined and synthetic form) was nominated by the Mount Sinai-Irving J. Selikoff Center for Occupational and Environmental Medicine and the Operative Plasterers’ and Cement Masons’ International
سؤالLake MacDonnell, with a resource of ~500 Mt, is Australia’s largest gypsum mine (Warren, 1983). Operations commenced in 1919, and production in 2013 was ~ 3.5 Mtonne. The deposit has been operated by Gypsum Resources of Australia Pty Ltd since 1984 when CSR Ltd and Boral Ltd combined their separate operations.
سؤالAs a consequence, gypsum typically occurs as layers associated with limestone, dolostone, shale, and rock salt. As seawater evaporates, gypsum is the first ‘salt’ to be precipitated, followed by anhydrite, halite, and finally sylvite. Usually found with other evaporite and carbonate minerals, such as anhydrite, calcite, dolomite, borax, and
سؤالOf the three varieties of gypsum—selenite, satin spar, and rock gypsum—Permian-age rock gypsum is mined in Barber County in south-central Kansas and in Marshall County in northeastern Kansas. Gypsum mined in Kansas was deposited during the Permian Period. Gypsum mining has a long history in Kansas, dating to the mid- to late-1800s.

سؤالThe Sub-Wealden Gypsum Company Limited was formed on 10th May 1876 and mining started with the sinking of a shaft in Limekiln Wood. Progress was initially slow because of the isolated position, until a railway link had been constructed to the main line at Robertsbridge. Gypsum mining then developed into the largest industry in the area and
سؤالGypsum from the Fort Dodge area was used to create one of the great hoaxes in U.S. history. In the 1860s, New England native George Hull traveled to Fort Dodge and purchased one acre of land along Gypsum Creek. He engaged local quarrymen to excavate the largest block of gypsum possible (about 2 feet thick, 4 feet wide, and 12 feet long).
سؤالGypsum is commonly associated with rock salt and sulfur deposits. It is processed and used as prefabricated wallboard or as industrial or building plaster, used in cement
سؤالGypsum is composed of calcium sulphate (CaSO4) and water (H2O). Its chemical name is calcium sulphate dihydrate (CaSO4.2H2O). Gypsum can be milled mixed with water and then resume its original rock-like state.
سؤالMines of Paris. Map of Paris's former mine exploitations (1908).

سؤالGypsum and anhydrite are the hydrated and anhydrous forms of calcium sulphate, which occur in nature as evaporate deposits in the form of nodular masses or beds up to a few metres thick. Gypsum is formed by the hydration of anhydrite at or near surface, but usually passes into anhydrite below 40 to 50 metres.
سؤالThere is concern over the exposure of individuals to gypsum dust in the workplace and home, and this concern has increased in the aftermath of the World Trade Center (WTC) collapse in September 2001.
