Geography and Environment: It is a sinkhole which grew in a semi-horizontal and semi-vertical position. Interconnected branches or alcoves extend in different directions. The formation of these branches usually elongating in the northwest-southeast direction has been characterized by bedding and cross sectional cracks. However; in the extension of the main branch; which is located at -76 m; the final point; there is a significant influence of a small fault in the direction of northeast-southwest. It is very poor in decoration.
