Welcome to my website about caves!

How many facts do you know about caves? Did you know...

• A cave (or cavern) is a naturally occurring area or space under the surface of the Earth.
• Stalagmites are created as the mineral rich water droplets fall to the cave floor leaving mineral deposits that grow to become pillar-like formations.
• Stalactites are created by the continuous dripping of mineral rich water, which little by little leaves mineral deposits on the ceiling as the minerals harden.
• The deepest known cave is Voronya Cave in Georgia, at 2,197 m (7,208 ft).
