The Beds, Massive field of the Gypsum section should be used to record stations where massive gypsum is found.
In sulfuric acid caves, gypsum can accumulate in large, massive deposits. These deposits can appear as blocks on the cave floor. They are white in color but can be discolored and obscured by sediments, guano and other things.
Drip pits and rillenkarren can be associated with these massive gypsum beds.
