Gold is typically not found in limestone caves.

However, gold can be found in certain types of geological formations such as quartz veins and placer deposits.

Limestone is a type of rock that is easily eroded by water, which can create caves over time. Water dissolves the limestone rock to form caves through a process known as chemical weathering. Additionally, limestone can also be carved out by underground rivers or other natural forces, resulting in the formation of caves.
