From: The fate of minor alkali elements in the chemical evolution of salt lakes
The saturation indices of selected minerals in the lakes of this study. A) Quadrant I: calcite and strontianite are supersaturated. Quadrant II: strontianite is supersaturated, and calcite is undersaturated. Quadrant III: strontianite and calcite are undersaturated. Quadrant IV: calcite is supersaturated, and strontianite is undersaturated. B) Quadrant I: calcite and witherite are supersaturated. Quadrant II: witherite is supersaturated, and calcite is undersaturated. Quadrant III: witherite and calcite are undersaturated. Quadrant IV: calcite is supersaturated, and witherite is undersaturated. C) Quadrant I: gypsum and celestite are supersaturated.
