Halite, which is also known as rock salt, forms either cubic crystals or massive deposits. The crystal structures are cubic, and can be very attractive as mineral specimens. It forms from the evaporation of brine — either from the ocean or from inland lakes. The salt can eventually accumulate in vast layers, and over time these may be buried by mud or sand and end up as thick geologic strata. Many of these are mined commercially. Although halite is typically colorless or white, it can be permeated by various agents such as other minerals or bacterial matter, resulting in a wide variety of unusual color forms, ranging from blue or yellow to purple or pink. It is easily identified in the field due to its characteristic combination of taste, crystal shape, and cleavage.
