(Color) (a) Comparison of literature and calculated anhydrite and bassanite solubility data. Literature values were only obtained up to 6 molal sodium, therefore our calcium sulfate validation is limited to this upper value, (b) Comparison of modeled calcium and sulfate concentrations using bassanite, anhydrite, and gypsum as the solubility controlling mineral phase and leg 4 calcium and sulfate concentrations prior to modeled halite formation.
