La Grotte de la Mine

Our main site for stalagmite sampling. Tunisia’s largest cave, made up of several big chambers hosting some really beautiful formations. We have been helping a team from ONM (https://www.onm.nat.tn/) and the SISKA institute (https://www.isska.ch/index.php/de/) to make a LiDAR survey of part of the cave and the mines which connect to it.
