Difference between Canyon and Limestone

Canyon vs. Limestone

A canyon (Spanish: cañón; archaic British English spelling: cañon) or gorge is a deep cleft between escarpments or cliffs resulting from weathering and the erosive activity of a river over geologic timescales. Limestone is a sedimentary rock, composed mainly of skeletal fragments of marine organisms such as coral, forams and molluscs.

Similarities between Canyon and Limestone

Canyon and Limestone have 8 things in common (in Unionpedia): Cave, Geological resistance, Ontario, Sandstone, Shale, Utah, Verdon Gorge, Weathering.
