Description
Dolomies of the Hole Stone
The dolomies of the upper Cretaceous of the Prebetic in the Sierra de Segura afloat extensively, configuring much of the main reliefs of it. In the sector of Siles there is an North-South mountain alignment, the main reliefs of which are Navalperal (1620 m) and Bucentaina (1395 m).
Between them is the peak called "Hole Stone" (1290 m), which is a magnificent example of ruiniform relief in dolomies. These are dolomies with subhorizontal stratification with several caves that cross the peak, and with a very well developed "dentado" relief.
