The caves in Missouri were primarily formed through a process called limestone dissolution, which occurs when slightly acidic water seeps through soil and rock. Over thousands of years, this water erodes the limestone bedrock, creating underground passages and caverns. The state's karst topography, characterized by sinkholes and springs, further contributes to cave formation. Notable examples include the famous Meramec and Mark Twain caves, showcasing the unique geological processes at work.
