New Mexico: Pristine pool 'untouched by humans' found in cave

In an incredible discovery, a team of explorers found a ‘wondrous’ natural blue pool which may have never been seen by humans, until now. The Carlsbad Caverns National Park, New Mexico recently took to Facebook to inform about the pristine ‘cave pool’ which was found in Lechuguilla Cave. In the post, the national park authorities shared a picture of the sight and said that the pool contains milky aquamarine liquid, surrounded by white frosted rock. The Carlsbad Caverns authorities said that they found the ‘pristine pool’ when the explorers ventures out beyond a body of water known as the ‘Lake of Liquid Sky’, which was discovered back in 1993. Furthermore, the officials also explained that the edges beneath the pool appear to be ‘pool fingers’, which are believed to be bacterial colonies. The team of explorers also took special precautions to ensure that there were no contaminants introduced to the natural pool.
