http://www.mexicocavediving.com/geology.html

Extractions: Science Overview Solution Caves are able to form because certain conditions allow it. Limestone, which comprises much of the bedrock of the Yucatan Peninsula is an essential ingredient. Rain water, as it falls from the sky, mixes with carbon dioxide to form a weak solution called carbonic acid. As this concoction seeks the water table below the surface, it dissolves the limestone. Over the course of many thousands of years the caves are formed. The same beautiful decorations that one might encounter in a dry cave such as stalactites, stalagmites, columns and halactites are all present here in the Yucatan Peninsula. "Glaciers on the Yucatan Peninsula?", you ask. Well, not really, but the last Ice Age did have an impact on the Yucatan Peninsula. During the last Ice Age, water levels of the world's oceans were on average 100 meters or 300 feet lower than their present day levels. If you sit back and think about that for a minute you can immediately see that the caves that we are presently diving were all dry during that period. When the Ice Age came to a close some 10,000 to 12,000 years ago, the climate of the planet warmed up, the glaciers receded and the caves were flooded. Scientists have varying views on how fast the water levels rose back up but most agree that it reached its current level around 1,000 years ago. Carbon dating of artifacts found in some area caves shows them to be 7,000 years old.

Extractions: Geology can have only a meagre representation in the National Museum until another building is provided. Immense stores of specimens of rocks, drawings of sections to illustrate dynamic geology, denudation, etc., are in reserve, besides thousands of fossils. Few objects of interest are as yet exhibited. The pictures of scenery and structure near the Grand Canyon of the Rio Colorado, made for the U. S. Geological Survey by W. H. Holmes; models of that profound gorge; of the Yellowstone National Park, of the bristling peaks of the Sierra San Juan (recalling the dolomite district of the Alps), of Vesuvius with its lava channels, and others, will attract attention. A few of what may be called the curiosities of geology, however, must not be overlooked, first of all the column and sparkling stalagmites and stalactites from the cavern of Luray, the most interesting of all American caves, although of less size than the Mammoth. The Luray caverns are in Page county, Virginia, and easily accessible from Washington, since they lie directly upon the line of the Shenandoah Valley railway. They were discovered in 1870 and Soon opened to the public by an enterprising company of owners who built an exceedingly comfortable hotel, the Luray Inn, established a regular hack service, and lighted the caves by electricity These caves are of vast extent and some of the chambers are of great size. They are characterized by the great abundance of stalactites

http://www.museum.state.il.us/muslink/behind/htmls/cr_geo_cav.html

Extractions: Crawling through tight, muddy cave passages looking for bones and guano (bat manure) is how some of us, as Museum geologists, do our research . We are looking for bones and guano because these provide us with clues about the animals that lived in an area in the past. Some of the bones are relatively recent (only a few hundred to a few thousand years old). Other bones may be hundreds of thousands to millions of years old. Caves are excellent places to find bones to study. Once bones are in a cave, they rarely leave (until we excavate them). The conditions in the cave also preserve bones and guano, so they are likely to survive for thousands of years. The bones and guano can tell us what kinds of animals lived in an area, when they lived there, and how the animals, the cave, and the environment have changed over time. Studying bones in caves requires special equipment. We wear helmets (to protect our heads), kneepads (for crawling through small passages), and warm clothing (caves are cool). We each have a bright light on our helmet (caves have no light). We also carry extra lights (in case the light on our helmet goes out). We also use notebooks (to record information about bones we find), cameras, tape measures, trowels (to excavate bones for study in the lab), and special carrying containers (to safely remove fragile bones from the cave).
