Abstract :To observe global trends in industrial raw material-minerals production, there is a need for significant data, providing information concerning investors and markets. Low value raw industrial material compare to metals, precise production figures are important as well, short-long term demand and investment. Turkey gypsum deposits have generally mined as a basin and there are no detailed petrographic and chemical studies related to these deposits. The graduate studies, carried out in a limited number, mostly are not for economical mining. In this study, evaluation of gypsum deposits in Turkey is given based on several reports, references and our geological prospection. The present data for Turkey and the world based on these statistics do not reflect the actual gypsum production in Turkey. Turkey gypsum statistical data is expressed as a low according to actual situation in the world statistics. To provide accurate data for the world statistical and to express gypsum deposits and potential of Turkey are aimed in this studyKeywords : Gypsum Deposits, Turkısh Gypsum Industries, Plaster Production, Market, Statistical Data.
