A PSEUDOKARSTIC CAVE IN KUMALAR MOUNTAIN: ÇAKMAKTEPE CAVE (Kumalar Mountain-Sandıklı-Afyon-TURKEY)
Çakmaktepe Cave is located in source area of Kovalık Creek, which originates from western slopes of Kumalar Mountain in the east of Sandıklı town. The cave developed in partially altered trachytic lava. However, it is a pseudokarstic cave formed by dissolution of relatively easily soluble silicate m...
