Travertine Dams
|
|
|

Havasu Creek, Grand Canyon, Arizona, USA. The water is saturated with calcium carbonate, which precipitates as travertine (a freshwater limestone) when agitated. This builds up these curious structures. Colloidal CaCO3 is also responsible for the curious turquoise color to the water.
