China's 'Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Ice Cave' is in Ningwu, Shanxi Province. Ice covers the ground, top, and walls of the cave. The site was authorized by UNESCO in 2005. Experts believe the cave formed in the fourth ice age of the Cenozoic era and has more than 3 million years of history. NEWSCOM/FILE
Stalactite formations in a cave are seen here. Stalactites are a type of dripstones and are formed by the deposition of calcium carbonate and other minerals. The stalactites begin with a drop of water, which as it drops down, leaves behind a thin ring of calcite. Each drop leaves another ring so that eventually long, narrow tubes form. These formations can also meet and fuse with other stalactites to create columns over time. NEWSCOM
The subterranean cave systems of Rio Camuy Cave Park in Puerto Rico are among the largest in the Western Hemisphere. Shown here is a sinkhole which suddenly formed, with a drop of 200 feet down to the Camuy River, which flows from the cave entrance. A massive system of tunnels reportedly underlie the area for miles. NEWSCOM
