More accurately I think you mean "What type of rocks hold caves?"
The majority of caves are in Limestone; some in its metamorphic edition, Marble. These, "karst" caves, often also hold calcite deposits (stalactites etc) formed by precipitation of the calcium carbonate dissolved from the rock above the cave by the water oozing through its joints.
There are also lava tubes in basalt lava, formed by molten rock flowing from below a solidified crust.
Sea-caves and mass-movement fissures can occur in most competant rocks.
Limestone rocks are mainly found in caves. These rocks are soluble in water, allowing for the formation of various cave structures such as stalactites and stalagmites through the process of dissolution.
The rocks around Jenolan Caves are predominantly limestone, formed from ancient marine sedimentation. These rocks exhibit distinctive features such as cave formations due to the erosion by underground water over millions of years. Additionally, there are also dolomite and shale rocks present in the area surrounding the caves.
Karst landscape is a type of landscape where caves, deep valleys, and sinkholes are common. This type of landscape is formed by the dissolution of soluble rocks such as limestone, dolomite, or gypsum by groundwater. The result is distinctive topographical features like caves, sinkholes, and underground drainage systems.
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.
This type of landscape is called a karst landscape. It is characterized by its unique geological features such as limestone caves, sinkholes, and underground streams. Karst landscapes are typically found in regions with abundant rainfall that can dissolve soluble rocks like limestone.
Limestone, granite, and gypsum are common types of rocks found in caves. Limestone caves, in particular, are formed through the dissolution of the rock by acidic groundwater, creating unique cave formations such as stalactites and stalagmites.

Caves usually and mostly forms in sedimentary rocks. Example, Limestone.
Rattlesnakes may be found under rocks and in caves. This is because the caves are dark and moist. Underneath rocks is dark and damp, too. This is the type of "climate" that rattlesnakes prefer.

Sedimentary Rocks.
It depends on the cave. Since many caves are limestone (water carves it nicely), you usually find limestone. But granite is common in New Hampshire & Vermont.

Copper can be found in Granitic and Basaltic rocks.
Sedimentary rock
STALAGMITES
They are mostly found in Sedimentary Rocks
They usually grow from limestone. Mostly in caves.
