Which speleothem formation increases when sulfuric weathering dominates limestone caves?

💡 Explanation

Gypsum crust deposition increases with sulfuric weathering because oxidation generates sulfuric acid, reacting with the limestone bedrock via acid dissolution; therefore gypsum forms, rather than formations dominated by calcium carbonate solutions typical in limestone dissolution.
