Abstract
[Abstract] In 1999 two borings were performedin the area of Pocala Cave, one outside the cave and the other inside in the cave. In particular four samples of the first boring were studied.It seems that mineralogy is strictly connected with sedimentology where quartz and plagioclase are present. It could be a consequence of a periodical floods of flysch sediments during interglacial period
