Most caves are in limestone or dolomite rocks. Some (e.g. Carlsbad Caverns) are in gypsum rocks. But caves can also exist in lava deposits (e.g. lava tube caves), marble rocks (i.e. metamorphosed limestone), and many other types of rocks at lower rates, depending on various variables.

Additionally, there are also dolomite and shale rocks present in the area surrounding the caves.
Are magnesium veins in caves?
Magnesium veins are not typically found in caves. Magnesium is more commonly found in mineral deposits, such as magnesite or dolomite, which are formed through geological processes. While magnesium may be present in the rocks or minerals of a cave, it is not usually in the form of distinct veins.

What rocks are caves made of?
Caves caused by volcanic activity are made of basalt Caves caused by dissolution due to groundwater are formed in limestone or sometimes marble. Caves also form in glacial ice due to melting. (Glacial ice can technically be considered rock.)
