Scientific properties:
Gypsum has a wide variety of forms. The Desert Rose Crystal (also known as Selenite Rose, Gypsum Rose, Sand Rose and Rose Rock) is the name given to the rose-shaped like crystal cluster formations of gypsum and barite, which are also composed of a large volume of sand grains. The crystals form a circular formation of flat sheets, giving the rock a shape somewhat similar to a blossoming rose.
