Other way round! Water and/or air are in caves.:-)
Most of the world's caves have formed / are forming in limestone.
Limestone Caves e.g The Marble Arch Caves in Northern Ireland(Fermanagh)
They are both caves
Limestone is the rock that is in Caves. When carbonate acid is reacted to the limestone in the caves, it will corrode forming strange caves landforms.
generally, in limestone uplands, where the limestone is sufficiently massive to hold caves, and particularly but not exclusively where the local surface drainage can concentrate rainwater into discreet streams than can then form sink caves when they flow onto the limestone.
Yes Missouri is famous for its limestone caves.
No, not all caves are made of limestone. Caves can be formed in various types of rocks, including granite, sandstone, and volcanic lava flows. Limestone caves are common because limestone is soluble and can be eroded by water to create cave systems, but caves can also form in other types of rocks through different geological processes.
Limestone is a type of rock that is easily eroded by water, which can create caves over time. Water dissolves the limestone rock to form caves through a process known as chemical weathering. Additionally, limestone can also be carved out by underground rivers or other natural forces, resulting in the formation of caves.
The vast majority of the world's caves are in limestone.
limestone
It's found around them! The vast majority of the world's caves are formed in limestone (soluble in ground-water).
Air! They are voids IN limestone formed by dissolution by water.
Limestone is the type of rock that is commonly found in areas with a lot of caves. Limestone is made of calcium carbonate, which is soluble in water. Over time, as rainwater seeps into the ground, it dissolves the limestone and creates openings and caves in the rock.
