minerals formed from precipitation
Chemical Sedimentary Rocks. Chemical sedimentary rocks form by precipitation of minerals from water. Precipitation is when dissolved materials come out of water. For example: Take a glass of water and pour some salt (halite) into it.The salt will dissolve into the water.nother way to precipitate minerals out of water is to change the temperature (or the acidity) of the water rather than evaporate the water. This is how rocks such as limestones form. Limestones commonly form in oceans, which do not evaporate away.
