A cave with an access corridor, a hall rich in speleothems, a north gallery with stalagmitic barriers and an aragonite mass called “le Lustre”.
Descrizione
Morfologia
A 20-metre corridor leads, after the door that guards its access, into a hall of 50 x 15 m, on average well decorated with speleothems.
A relatively flat gallery of regular section (3-4 m) oriented due north develops between -5 m and -8 m.
After Un lac, a last enlarged barrier gives access to a rubble-filled gallery, perpendicular to the previous one, heading due west.
At the end of 140 metres, the gallery meets a joint oriented ENE-WSW, blocked on both sides after about thirty metres, not far from the flank of the ruisseau de la Camelière.
Concrezioni
The hall is on average well decorated with speleothems. At intervals, stalagmitic barriers slow the progression. At the start of the rubble-filled gallery is a spectacular mass of aragonite: “le Lustre”, the terminus of the tourist circuit.
Idrologia
After Un lac, a last enlarged barrier gives access to a rubble-filled gallery.
