Description
Morphology
Through a narrow entrance we reach a small chamber after a P-2; the chamber is oriented in a NW direction and measures 2×2 metres. We find the continuation by continuing down the shaft, which, fully descended, gives us -8 metres; we go through a narrow joint, which at first is all earth, since it is the contact of the conglomerate with the soil layer. Approximately halfway down the descent we can progress towards the S for some 5 metres; we find ourselves in a joint 0.60 metres wide, quite inclined. A small pit allows us to descend to 9 metres, the maximum depth of the cavity. The pit continues below the entrance vertical, since from the falling stones and the sound it is evident that it “goes”, but its narrowness makes continuing the exploration unviable.
Speleothems
The joint located approximately halfway down the descent is decorated with lithogenic formations.
