An abundance of fine calcareous fragments, sand-sized, cemented together a few million years ago to form a rock known as calcarenite. Its surface is now colonized by various lichens, among which the bright orange ones of the genus Caloplaca stand out.
In Menorca, calcarenite formed millions of years ago from the cementation of fine calcareous fragments. Today, its surface hosts a variety of lichens, with the vivid orange of the Caloplaca genus standing out among the rocks — a true natural spectacle.
