Abstract: Karst denominates a terrain with specific hydrogeological and geomorphological features which emanate in soluble rocks. It represents a resource of global-level significance owing to exceptional geodiversity and biodiversity abundance and the water it holds. Karst landscape is an active laboratory of quite simple but endless chemical processes. It was a huge area in a warm tropical Thetys ocean where minute shells of marine organisms accumulated for millions of years, while pressure of seawater column and own weight pressed them into compact rock.
