Limestone
I suppose that a marble statue is more sensible (excepting wood statues).
Most likely, fossils are found in shale, limestone, sandstone, coal, and chert.
One of several possible sedimentary rocks, but most likely that assemblage would give a coarse limestone, though limestone rarely holds plant fossils.

The limestone caverns themselves are formed by groundwater gradually dissolving the limestone rock. In this process, some of the limestone is taken into solution, and under favourable conditions, it will form a drip on the roof of a cavern. This may eventually build to form a stalactite above, and perhaps also a stalagmite below it.

Calcite
The metamorphosed limestone will most likely be a skarn or marble, both formed from contact with an intruding granitic magma.
The statues were carved by different clans/families. This was likely a show of wealth and prestige. Dating of the statues indicates that they became more elaborate with time as if the clans were competing with each other.
