Erosion by ground water
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.
Caves are mainly composed of rock materials such as limestone, sandstone, granite, and basalt. These rocks often have natural cracks or fissures that water can seep into and erode over time, forming cave systems. Additionally, caves may contain mineral deposits such as stalactites and stalagmites.
The main types of caves are solution caves, lava caves, sea caves, glacier caves, and talus caves. Solution caves form from the dissolution of soluble rocks like limestone; lava caves are created by flowing lava; sea caves are carved by the action of waves on coastal cliffs; glacier caves form within glaciers due to melting and refreezing processes; and talus caves are formed by fallen rocks creating cave-like structures.
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.
Yes, there are various types of caves, including limestone caves, lava tubes, sea caves, ice caves, and solution caves. Each type of cave is formed through different geological processes and conditions, resulting in unique characteristics and features.

The Mendips are a range of hills, mainly in Somerset UK, south of Bristol. They start in the sea at Brean Down and go east until Frome. They are mainly limestone, and there are lots of caves, including show caves at Cheddar and Wookey Hole.

Caves and their contents ARE Nature - or part of it anyway! They can contain various animals like bats that use caves as roosts, nurseries and hibernaculae, but feed outside; and others that live their whole lives underground. The latter are mainly invertebrates, plus a few species of fish and salamander.
