In time or length?
In time - a major cave can take 10 or 100s of thousands of years to develop, and if it still carries water it is still developing.
In length - anything from a few feet to the something like 390 miles so far known and measured inthe Flint Ridge / Mammoth system.

These cracks then widen as more water flows through, eventually forming caves. Additionally, some limestone caves are formed through the erosion of underground rivers.

How long have caves been around?
Worldwiode, many tens, perhaps a few hundred, of millions of years - as long as there have been karst uplands. Many that formed in that time no longer exist because the landscapes in which they developed have long been eroded away.
What are the two features that are formed by underground weathering?
The two features formed by underground weathering are caves and caverns. Caves are natural underground chambers typically formed in limestone, while caverns are larger caves that often have unique formations such as stalactites and stalagmites.
What types of caves are there?
Fissure, Talus, Solutional, Granite, Slate, Erosional, man-made, rare emerged Sea caves, Sea caves, and Sandstone caves.Most are created over millions of years by water dissolving minerals in the rock, leaving a void or hollow behind.
