Abstract

The existence of evaporite deposits is one of the many unsatisfactorily explained phenomena in earth science. This discussion reviews various models of evaporite formation and their anomalies. Also, the authors propose a means of testing the uniformitarian assumption often associated with evaporite formation models. This is of interest to creationists in that uniformitarianism models require more time for evaporite formation than is allowed by Biblical chronology.
