RE: Life's Role in Geology: Life's Favorite Rock

in #science7 years ago

Cool, I always imagined the land was just way higher up, and then it all eroded away, leaving the much harder mounds of rock standing there to create that Chinese landscape. Nice to correct something in my brain!

Nope! Caves formed, grew bigger and bigger, and started collapsing. Those mounds of rock are the former pillar that supported the caves!
