AB The Castañar the Ibor Cave formed by dissolution of the Precambrian dolostone beds of the Ibor Group.The cave contains a variety of calcitic and aragonitic speleothems, and also moon-milk deposits composedof huntite, dolomite and minor hydromagnesite. Both huntite and dolomite tend to form spheroidalstructures. Huntite formation occurred mostly on microbial films that in part corrode the speleothems.Spherulites of dolomite could form later on by transformation of the previously formed huntite, that actedas a precursor for dolomite formation. Both the huntite precursor and the microbial activity allow thepresence of dolomite under environmental conditions
