    Coron limestones were formed 260 million years ago as a coral reef along Southeast Asia before being drafted to its present location north of Palawan by tectonic movements. They were uplifted 30 million years ago and extensively eroded by waves and rains to create its unique karst topography, with limestone formations rising more than 400 meters above sea level.

    PERFORMANCE TASK #4

    CORON PALAWAN

    Coron limestones were formed 260 million years ago as a coral reef along the
    length of Southeast Asia and was part of the China Continental Crust. It was
    later drafted to its present location north of Palawan by tectonic movements.
    They were uplifted by tectonism some 30 million years ago and then
    extensively eroded by waves and monsoon rains to create its present unique
    “karst” topography. These limestone crops rise dramatically as cathedral-like
    formations more 400 meters above sea level.
