Sinkholes associated with natural processes are characteristic of what type of bedrock?
Limestone
What type of rock is often associated with the formation of caverns and karst topography?
Limestone is usually associated with karst topography.
What can scientists do to overcome the problems of limestone quarrying?
Scientists can manage the debris and dust by creating quarrying fields that are sheltered in order to overcome the problems associated with limestone quarrying. They can also find a way to reduce the dependence on limestone to lessen the problems.
What type of rock is most often associated with sinkholes?
Any soluble rock may be associated with sinkhoes, for example carbonate sedimentary rocks such as limestone and dolomite, as well as evaporitic rocks such as halite and gypsum.
What type of rock is usually present in area with a lot of caves?
Limestone is often associated with caves, as rainwater gradually reacts with it and dissolves it away.
What type of rock is mostly associated with caves?
Limestone.
What are some minerals that can be found in limestone?
Limestone is composed mostly of calcite. Other minerals which may be associated with limestone are are pyrite, dolomite, and quartz, among others.
What type of chemical weathering is associated with limestone?
Normal rain (slowly) and acid rain (rapidly) both weather limestone.
What environment is limestone typically associated with?
A karst environment, or karst topography.
Sinkholes associated with natural processes are characteristic of what type of bedrock?
Limestone

Limestone is usually associated with karst topography.
What type of rock often associated with the formation of caverns and karst topography?
Limestone is usually associated with karst topography.
What type of rock is often associated with the formation of caverns and karst topography?
Limestone is usually associated with karst topography.
Where does marble rock come from?
Marble is metamorphosed limestone or dolomite, and is predominately calcitic in composition. Marble usually forms from regional metamorphism associated with plate collisions.
What can scientists do to overcome the problems of limestone quarrying?
Scientists can manage the debris and dust by creating quarrying fields that are sheltered in order to overcome the problems associated with limestone quarrying. They can also find a way to reduce the dependence on limestone to lessen the problems.
How is willemite formed?
Willemite is usually formed as an alteration of previously existing Sphalerite ore bodies and is often associated with Limestone.
