Gypsum Anhydrite and Gypsum Dihydrate
Anhydrite gypsum is the more concentrated version of calcium sulfate. Gypsum is a fast-release material, anhydrite gypsum a slower-release product which stays in the root zone longer making it available for plant uptake. The true cost of any particular calcium sulfate application may, ultimately, depend on its shipping cost.

Difference Between Gypsum and Anhydrite
Gypsum vs Anhydrite. Gypsum, also called hydrated calcium sulphate (CaSO4 · 2H2O) and anhydrite (CaSO4), also called hydrous calcium sulphate are the major minerals in the sedimentary rocks of rock gypsum and rock anhydrite respectively. Gypsum consists of calcium, sulfur and water while anhydrite consists of calcium, sulfur and oxygen.

Anhydrite
Anhydrite was first discovered in 1794 in the Hall salt mine near Innsbruck, Austria, and named then or shortly after by Abraham Gottlob Werner. The depth of the occurrence was critical to the discovery, because nearer the surface circulating ground water had altered the anhydrite to gypsum. Massive orange anhydrite from Novoveska Huta, Slovakia.
