Strontium and bromide concentrations of the brine fluctuates around 15 mg/l (Sr 2+) and 17 mg/l (Br ). The Srcontent of the carbonates and gypsum correlates with
the degree of evaporation and consequently with the
relative air humidity. The Sr-content of thornstone
samples reaches values up to about 0.2 wt.-% (2,000
g/g or ppm). Bromide remains in the solution and
would be fixed at a later stage together with chloride in
the structure of chlorides.
Figure 5. Photograph of a thin section with gypsum crystals
(parallel polarisers), which grow on a wooden plan (lower
border of the image). The first layer consists of fine-grained
gypsum and organic material. The gypsum crystals, with a
length of 6 mm at maximum, contain layers of carbonates
and foreign particles.
