Description
Morphology
This tiny pit is formed along a N45O-trending joint and consists of a small shaft followed by a short ramp with small clastic materials, ending in a small chamber.
Speleothems
The final small chamber shows a fairly developed lithogenic process.
History
We only knew of the exploration carried out by members of GES-CMB around 1959. In the latest editions of the Alpina map it appears marked as avenc de la Rèvola, since in 1999 Lluís Muntan located it and gave it this name because at the mouth there was a good clump of madder (Rubia peregrina).
