Extractions: Reportedly, the physical beauty of the region fascinated the first Europeans who traveled to the Caribbean. These Spaniards in Columbus' ships described the Caribbean as green and fertile, cooled by the trade winds, with a climate of `perpetual spring'. The lush vegetation, types of fruits and the flora and fauna were portrayed with great enthusiasm. The Caribbean region, located in the tropics, extends in a broad arc of over 4000 km from the Bahamas in the north to Guyana and Suriname in the south. The region also includes, based on historical factors, Belize which is in Central America bordering Mexico and Guatemala. The countries are widely different in physical and population size as well as landforms and geology. Three marine geographical features, often intermixed, are evident in the sweep of the Caribbean archipelago and in the mainland territories. There is first an outer ring of mainly coral islands with white sand beaches from The Bahamas, to the Turks and Caicos, the Cayman Islands and embracing parts of Cuba, the Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, Anguilla, Antigua and Barbuda, the eastern parts of Guadeloupe, Martinique, St. Lucia, the Grenadines, parts of Grenada, Tobago and Barbados. The second inner ring of more volcanic islands, with black sands, includes the islands of the Greater Antilles - Cuba, Haiti, Dominican Republic and Puerto Rico. The inner ring also includes St. Kitts, the western parts of Guadeloupe, Dominica, parts of St. Lucia, St. Vincent, and parts of Grenada. The third distinct feature is the alluvial coast of Guyana, Suriname and French Guiana (Cayenne) on the South American mainland between the vast estuaries of the Orinoco and the Amazon.

Extractions: Cave on Middle Caicos debris are buried under thousands of feet of limestone rock which has been formed by the deposition of skeletal remains from marine organisms and precipitation of calcium carbonate material. Precipitation is a process where, under the right conditions, the dissolved minerals in the sea water are deposited to form small particles called ooids. These ooids then cement together to form oolite rock, which makes up most of the Turks and Caicos area. Additional rock was formed by the fossilized remains of plankton, algae, coral, shellfish, and the waste pellets of flat fish. On all of the Islands caves can be found. These have been formed when slightly acidic water dissolves the limestone. The caves on Middle Caicos form the largest cave network in the Bahamian archipelago. These caves are ideal habitats for wildlife and were used by the Lucayans , for whom they had religious significance. For a short while there was a guano industry, where bat droppings were collected for use in the production of fertiliser. These sinkholes and caves provide wonderful sources of research material for paleontologists and archaeologists. The porous nature of the limestone means it does not hold water well. This has meant that fresh water is difficult to find and occurs where rain water has accumulated and floats on the more dense salt water table. There are several natural wells on the Islands but humans have relied on collecting rain water and in more recent years this has been done through collecting rain runoff from the roofs in large storage tanks.

Extractions: The Caicos islands lie on the shallow Caicos bank which means that, although they have wonderful beaches and clear turquoise water, deeper water for diving is a lengthy boat ride away. Grand Turk, and its little sister Salt Cay, lie to the east and are separated from the Caicos Bank by the deep blue of the Columbus Passage. Spectacular wall-diving can be had within a short swim from the shore. Grand Turk originally became the natural capital for this tiny nation because of its deepwater harbour but modern air travel has changed all that. The island of Providenciales, or Provo as locals like to call it, one of the islands furthest west in the TCI, has an international airport which has enabled it to attempt to develop a booming tourism business.
