Fig. 6. Characteristics of karst fabrics in horizontal underflow zone below second-stage water table in different karst paleogeomorphic units. (a), (b), (c) Caverns with diameter reaching meter level, near horizontal dissolved fractures cutting early-stage high-angle dissolved fractures, cystic dissolved vugs, and near horizontal dissolved fractures developed in second-stage horizontal underflow zone in karst highland; the diameters of caverns in (a), and (b) were 2.5 m, and 1.4 m, respectively; (d), (e), (f) Caverns with slight smaller diameters, ranging from 0.3 m to 1.4 m, near horizontal dissolved fractures cutting early-stage high-angle dissolved fractures, cystic dissolved vugs and near horizontal dissolved fractures in second-stage horizontal underflow zone in karst slope. |
