Abstract:Caves are unique sedimentary archives that may record the evolution of the surrounding landscape. In this study, we applied combination of mineralogical data on allochthonous sediments with digital modelling of isobase surfaces to reconstruct the multi‐phased geomorphological development of the karst of the Harmanecká dolina Valley. The allochthonous cave sediments contain quartz and translucent heavy minerals (HMs) such as tourmaline, garnet, rutile, apatite, zircon, pyroxene, amphibole, staurolite, spinel, m… Show more
