Abstract
The formastions found in the "Grutas del Palmito" confirm the existence of different climatic situations occurred in the cave. Among the more common formations this cave characterised by a number of rimstone pools, sometimes very large. In some of them big cave pearls (up to more than 10 cm in diameter) are found. Physical-chemical analyis of the material of the rimstone pools show a very fast deposition rate with the presence of thermal waterI documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
